CELL PENETRATING PEPTIDE AND METHOD FOR DELIVERY OF BIOLOGICALLY ACTIVE MATERIALS USING IT

摘要

The present invention is to provide: a novel cell penetrating peptide; and a composition for delivering a biologically active substance, a composition for gene therapy and a method for delivering the biologically active substance. The cell penetrating peptide of the present invention can effectively deliver a protein into human cell lines and tissues, can deliver a protein with higher efficiency in comparison with a TAT peptide which is commercially used as a cell penetrating peptide, and can also be usefully used in the delivery of biologically active substances such as proteins, genetic materials, chemical compounds etc which may be used for therapeutic purposes in cells.
