Glycosylated Cell‐Penetrating Peptides (GCPPs) [PDF]

open access: yesChemBioChem, 2019
AbstractThe cell membrane regulates the exchange of molecules and information with the external environment. However, this control barrier hinders the delivery of exogenous bioactive molecules that can be applied to correct cellular malfunctions. Therefore, the traffic of macromolecules across the cell membrane represents a great challenge for the ...
