Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Cell-penetrating peptides (CPPs) can enter cells with cargo. However, endocytosis plays a major role in their uptake and keep most of CPP-cargo trapped in endosomes. In this study, I designed peptides which could green fluorescent protein (EGFP) and immunoglobulin (IgG) into cytosol of HEK293. Furthermore, it was indicated that cellular uptake of CPP-EGFP and cytosolic delivery occur via endocytosis.
