Part:BBa_K3090000

cell penetrating peptide

nuclear localization signal (NLS) enriched in positively charged residues that can function as a Cell-penetrating peptide (CPP), similar to the classical CPP derived from HIV type 1 transactivator of transcription protein (HIV TAT).

Characterization

This part(BBa_K3090000) was fused to the N-terminus of scFv(P5) (part number BBa_K3090001) to design a cell-penetrating antibody fragment (part BBa_K3090002). The sequence of the designed protein is as follows.
