Paper Targeting glmS Ribozyme with Chimeric Antisense Oligonucleotides for Antibacterial Drug Development
Peptide pVEC
Delivery Success Class no
In Vivo Flag no
Uptake Confirmed no
Label Confidence high
In Vitro Functional Effect yes
Endosomal Escape Evidence
Peptide Concentration ASO1–pVEC tested 150–2000 nM; MIC80 700 nM (~5 µg/mL)
Rna Concentration same as peptide (conjugated ASO1–pVEC): 150–2000 nM; MIC80 700 nM
Mixing Ratio
Formulation Format CPP–ASO conjugate (ASO1–pVEC)
Formulation Components ASO1 (16-mer chimeric ASO with PS + 2′-O-alkyl mods) + pVEC
Size Nm
Zeta Mv
Model Scope in_vitro
Model Type in vitro (bacterial culture)
Cell Lines Or Primary Cells Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923 (also tested specificity in E. coli K12 and Bacillus subtilis 168)
Animal Model
Administration Route
Output Type MIC80 / growth inhibition
Output Value MIC80 = 700 nM (≈5 µg/mL) for S. aureus growth inhibition
Output Units
Output Notes Growth inhibition monitored by OD600 over time; glmS RNA inhibition supported by PCR (absence of amplification with ASO1–pVEC).
Toxicity Notes pVEC alone showed no inhibition of S. aureus growth up to 2000 nM; ASO1 without pVEC ineffective (cannot cross bacterial membrane).
