Abstract

Uptake of diagnostic and therapeutic oligonucleotides that specifically target disease can be enhanced by attachment of a cell-penetrating peptide. Here, we describe the covalent attachment of an oligonucleotide to Tat, a biologically important cell-penetrating peptide, via click chemistry.
