Abstract: The present invention relates to novel transporter constructs of the generic formula (I) DlLLLxDm(LLLyDn)a and variants thereof. The present invention also refers to transporter cargo conjugate molecules, particularly of conjugates of the novel transporter constructs with a cargo moiety, e.g. proteins or peptides, nucleic acids, cytotoxic agents, organic molecules, etc. The present invention furthermore discloses (pharmaceutical) compositions comprising these conjugates and methods of treatment and uses involving such transporter constructs.
Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of specific transporter cargo conjugate molecules for the transport of a substance of interest (cargo molecule) into white blood cells. Said transporter cargo conjugate molecules may be used for the treatment, prophylaxis, attenuation and/or amelioration of a disease and/or disorder involving white blood cells. The present invention also relates to manufacture of said transporter cargo conjugate molecules, to a method of transporting a substance of interest (cargo) into a white blood cell and to a white blood cell comprising said transporter cargo conjugate molecules or fragments thereof.
Abstract: The invention relates to a sequence of amino acids with the capacity to facilitate transport of an effector across a biological membrane. More specifically, the present invention relates to novel peptide transporters that specifically target certain cell types for the intracellular delivery of drugs and therapeutic agents.
