GeT peptides: a single-domain approach to gene delivery

Abstract

A generic peptide sequence for gene delivery is described. The sequence penetrates eukaryotic cells and promotes active DNA transport into mammalian cells (EGFP positive) by undergoing differential membrane-induced folding, which renders it both endosomolytic and antibacterial.
