Abstract

Methods and compositions for facilitating the transport of a membrane-impermeable extracellular agent having an intracellular activity across the membrane of a cell are provided. The methods involve covalently coupling an amino terminal blocking group to a transport-mediating peptide to form a carrier molecule. The carrier molecule is covalently coupled to the extracellular agent to form a membrane-permeable prodrug. The transport-mediating peptides are highly basic and bind to polyphosphoinositides.
