Cell-Penetrating Peptides

Cell-Penetrating Peptides (CPPs) are short peptides that have the ability to traverse the cell membrane to enter cells. This unique property makes them useful for a wide range of applications, from drug delivery to genetic engineering. CPPs can be used to deliver genes and drugs directly into cells, which can allow for improved therapeutic efficacy and reduced side-effects. CPPs can also be used to modify cell membrane proteins, allowing for the study of their function and interactions. CPPs hold great potential in the biomedical field and are being used in various clinical trials and therapeutic strategies.
