Paper Design and characterization of a new peptide vector for short interfering RNA delivery
Peptide GL1
Delivery Success Class no
In Vivo Flag no
Uptake Confirmed yes
Label Confidence high
In Vitro Functional Effect yes
Endosomal Escape Evidence no
Peptide Concentration
Rna Concentration 100 nM for uptake assays (4 h); 50 nM for gene silencing assays (52 h total)
Mixing Ratio MR 40:1 (peptide:siRNA molar ratio)
Formulation Format noncovalent peptide/siRNA nanocomplex
Formulation Components GL1 + siRNA (electrostatic + hydrophobic interactions)
Size Nm 80.00
Zeta Mv 27.00
Model Scope in_vitro
Model Type in vitro (serum-free)
Cell Lines Or Primary Cells CHO-K1 (Chinese hamster ovary)
Animal Model
Administration Route
Output Type Uptake (FACS % and microscopy) + functional gene knockdown (qRT-PCR)
Output Value Uptake ~95% at MR40 (serum-free); GAPDH mRNA knockdown ~58% (MR40)
Output Units
Output Notes Cy3-GAPDH siRNA shows perinuclear/cytosolic localization by fluorescence microscopy; GL1 yields higher uptake than Lipofectamine 2000 in serum-free conditions but lower silencing, attributed to endosomal retention.
Toxicity Notes Cell viability >85% across tested molar ratios; higher than Lipofectamine 2000 (~70%)
Curation Notes
