His-TAT

A biobrick that includes the TAT signal peptide that can be fused to any protein for an easy internalization into mammalian cells (Vivès, et al., 1997). It includes a 6x His-tag for easy purification. TAT is a cell penetrating peptide (CPP) derived from the transactivator of transcription from HIV and has been used to internalize a range of large and small molecules from peptides, DNA and antibodies, to liposomes.
