Organelle Targeting Nanocarriers |
摘要 |
Provided are organelle targeting nanocarriers, including peptides, which act to deliver biological molecules such as nucleic acids to non-nuclear organelles such as mitochondria and chloroplasts. Also provided are methods for genetic transformation of non-nuclear organelles using such nanocarriers. |

1. A method for delivering a nucleic acid to a non-nuclear organelle in a cell, the method comprising exposing the cell to a composition comprising at least one nucleic acid and at least one organelle targeting nanocarrier; wherein the at least one nucleic acid translocates across a cell membrane of the cell and enters the non-nuclear organelle in the presence of the at least one organelle targeting nanocarrier. |
