eToeholds for detecting infected cells. eToeholds can be delivered by LNPs or other delivery mechanisms and upon detecting viral RNA in cells, it activates the translation of transmembrane proteins that function as T-cell beacons (orange) for T-cell destruction. (1) Upon T binding to the infected cell, it is activated and (2) the T cell is signaled to kill the infected cell.
