How Do Biomolecules Cross the Cell Membrane?

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that CPPs and bacterial protein toxins escape the endosome by the VBC mechanism in giant unilamellar vesicles as well as live mammalian cells and it is proposed that VBC may be the mechanism that drives the bacterial TAT and eukaryotic UPS systems.

Cellular uptake of the tat protein from human immunodeficiency virus

TL;DR: Experiments using radioactive protein show that tat becomes localized to the nucleus after uptake and suggest that chloroquine protects tat from proteolytic degradation, raising the possibility that, under some conditions, tat might act as a viral growth factor to stimulate viral replication in latently infected cells or alter expression of cellular genes.

Tumor imaging by means of proteolytic activation of cell-penetrating peptides.

TL;DR: In mice xenografted with human tumor cells secreting matrix metalloproteinases 2 and 9, ACPPs bearing a far-red-fluorescent cargo show in vivo contrast ratios of 2-3 and a 3.1-fold increase in standard uptake value for tumors relative to contralateral normal tissue or control peptides with scrambled linkers.

Design of a peptide-based vector, PepFect6, for efficient delivery of siRNA in cell culture and systemically in vivo.

TL;DR: A novel CPP, PepFect 6 (PF6), comprising the previously reported stearyl-TP10 peptide, having pH titratable trifluoromethylquinoline moieties covalently incorporated to facilitate endosomal release is presented, implying that the peptides, in addition to having utility for RNAi screens in vitro, displays therapeutic potential.
