Transactivator of transcription (TAT) cell-penetrating peptide.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
Not applicable as Biotin-TAT (47-57) is a cell-penetrating peptide delivery vehicle.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
In cultured primary cells (e.g., neurons, fibroblasts, immune cells), Biotin-TAT (47-57) at concentrations of 1-20 uM efficiently transports conjugated cargo into the cytoplasm and nucleus. After 1-4 hours of incubation, fluorescence microscopy reveals rapid cellular uptake. The biotin tag allows for detection or pull-down assays using streptavidin-conjugated probes (e.g., streptavidin-FITC or magnetic beads), facilitating the study of cargo delivery efficiency.
|
| Cell Assay |
A standard cell uptake assay: Incubate cells (e.g., HeLa, Jurkat, primary neurons) with 5-20 uM Biotin-TAT (47-57) in serum-free medium for 1-4 hours at 37degC. After incubation, wash cells three times with PBS to remove surface-bound peptide. Fix cells with 4% paraformaldehyde, permeabilize with 0.1% Triton X-100, and block with 5% BSA. Incubate with streptavidin-FITC (1:500) for 1 hour at room temperature. Counterstain nuclei with DAPI, mount, and image using confocal microscopy with appropriate filter sets.
|
| Animal Protocol |
For in vivo delivery studies, dissolve Biotin-TAT (47-57) in sterile PBS. Administer to mice via intravenous (IV) tail vein injection (5-20 mg/kg) or intraperitoneal (IP) injection. For brain targeting, intranasal administration is also effective. After 2-4 hours, perfuse animals with PBS, harvest tissues (brain, liver, spleen, kidney), and prepare frozen sections. Incubate sections with streptavidin-FITC or streptavidin-HRP to visualize TAT distribution. Biotin-TAT efficiently crosses the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and delivers cargo to brain parenchyma.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Based on its molecular weight (~1.8 kDa) and cationic peptide nature, Biotin-TAT (47-57) has a short plasma half-life (t1/2 ~5-15 min) due to rapid proteolytic degradation in the bloodstream. Despite its short half-life, efficient cargo delivery occurs quickly. Biodistribution studies show accumulation in liver, kidneys, and spleen, with significant accumulation in the brain following administration, likely due to adsorptive-mediated transcytosis across the BBB.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
At typical in vitro concentrations (10-50 uM for up to 4 hours), Biotin-TAT (47-57) shows low cytotoxicity (cell viability >80%) in most primary cell types. In vivo studies in mice at standard dosing (10-20 mg/kg IV) do not produce acute toxicity or mortality. However, at high concentrations (>100 uM or >50 mg/kg), non-specific membrane disruption and inflammatory responses may occur.

| Additional Infomation |
Biotin-TAT (47-57) is a research tool for intracellular delivery and is not approved for human therapeutic use. It is widely used in drug delivery research to evaluate the efficacy of TAT-mediated transport of therapeutic cargo. The biotin tag provides a versatile platform for conjugation to a wide range of detection and purification systems, making it indispensable for mechanistic studies of cell-penetrating peptides and targeted drug delivery.
