MAP - KLAL - PN159 is an amphiphilic cell penetrating peptide (CPP) that can be used as a cargo delivery system across cell membranes and to study intracellular processes. This lysine-rich peptide is able to translocate through the cell membrane and facilitate the delivery of various cargoes such as proteins, peptides, antibodies, and liposomes. In addition, PN159 peptide was found to be able to modulate tight junctions in intestinal epithelial and blood–brain barrier models. It forms an a-helix and can change its secondary structure to a beta-sheet upon binding to the cell membrane. Described by Oehlke et al. 1998.

JPT’s Cell Penetrating Peptides – CPPs
Cell Penetrating Peptides (CPPs) are capable of crossing cellular membranes, facilitating the delivery of various therapeutic and experimental cargoes, such as bioactive molecules, into cells. Their ability to transport molecules that otherwise cannot penetrate cell membranes, such as proteins, peptides, and even large nucleic acids like plasmid DNA or RNA, makes them indispensable for both fundamental research and clinical applications. JPT Peptide Technologies has substantial, long-standing expertise in providing peptides in all formats, scales and modifications to the global scientific community. All our catalog peptides are provided with HPLC-MS analyses to confirm the identity and demonstrate the high quality of our peptides.
