Manufactured in: United Kingdom protein transduction domain PTD-5 is a cell-penetrating peptide (CPP). PTD-5 is well characterised for its ability to carry conjugates into the cell with high efficiency and induce low toxicity. Several papers have demonstrated the efficacy of PTD-5 as a CPP; PTD-5 was also conjugated to KLA to produce a pro-apoptotic peptide named DP1 which is selective for mitochondrial and bacterial membranes.
PTD-5 is labelled at the N-terminus with an alkyne attachment for ease of reaction with an opposite Click reactive partner (azide). Azide-alkyne cycloaddition has become the most popular Click reaction. Alkyne-PTD-5 allows various applications, particularly for protein conjugation, modification, and drug delivery.
