Many diseases are associated with genetic mutation and expression of mutated proteins, such as cancers. Therapeutic approaches that selectively target the synthesis process of multiple proteins show greater potential compared to single-protein approaches in oncological diseases. However, conventional agents to regulate the synthesis of multiple protein still suffer from poor spatiotemporal selectivity and stability. Here, a new method using a dye-peptide conjugate, PRFK, for multi-protein interference with spatiotemporal selectivity and reliable stability, is reported. By using the peptide sequence that targets tumor cells, PRFK can be efficiently taken up, followed by specific binding to the KDELR (KDEL receptor) protein located in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). The dye generates
