Tumor-specific drug-delivering nanocarriers could be a promising modality for next-generation tumor therapy. Here we developed a Burkitt lymphoma-specific DNA aptamer-labeled nanocarrier using the β-Annulus peptide, which forms a spherical nanoassembly called artificial viral capsid. Dynamic light scattering and transmission electron microscopy of the DNA aptamer-decorated artificial viral capsid showed the formation of spherical assemblies with a diameter of approximately 50-150 nm. The artificial viral capsid was selectively internalized into the Burkitt lymphoma cell line, Daudi, and doxorubicin complexed with the capsid selectively killed Daudi cells.
