Peptide Peptide 50 (RAC-beta)
Delivery Success Class no
In Vivo Flag no
Uptake Confirmed no
Label Confidence medium
In Vitro Functional Effect yes
Endosomal Escape Evidence
Peptide Concentration
Rna Concentration
Mixing Ratio Nanoparticles: total lipids:siRNA weight ratio 10:1; peptide added post-formation at ~5-fold molar excess relative to PEG-thiol.
Formulation Format Peptide-decorated lipidoid nanoparticle (C12-117 LNP) carrying siRNA
Formulation Components Lipidoid nanoparticle (C12-117) + cholesterol + DSPE-PEG-SH (PEG2k/3.4k) encapsulating/adsorbing siRNA; peptides synthesized with N-term maleimide-PEG8 and conjugated post-formation to surface thiols.
Size Nm 96.30
Zeta Mv
Model Scope in_vitro
Model Type in vitro
Cell Lines Or Primary Cells Dual-luciferase HeLa cells (firefly + renilla reporters)
Animal Model
Administration Route
Output Type In vitro functional RNA effect: luciferase knockdown (Dual-Glo assay at day 3)
Output Value Luciferase silencing measured; activity varies across peptide-decorated nanoparticles (top hits reached ~60–95% knockdown at 2.5 µg/mL siRNA).
Output Units
Output Notes Cells treated 4 h then media replaced; readout at 3 days. C12-117 LNP without peptide shows no silencing. Stoichiometric 1:1 peptide–siRNA conjugates had only modest (~≤30%) knockdown.
