Description
Trojan peptides are short sequences that penetrate through the plasma membrane inside the cell without the need of any receptor or endocitosis process [Derossi 1998]. They can be used to increase the efficiency with which a protein enters a cell.
This part is the penetratin from the HIV TAT protein, and has to be used just before the coding sequence of the peptide that you want to be import enhanced.
Notes
