The use of cell-membrane translocating sequences for intracellular delivery
of peptides can be a powerful approach to validate drug discovery targets
in cellular settings. To accomplish this, a protocol has been implemented t
o couple the antennapedia third helix (residues 43-58) to a potent antagoni
st of the p53/hdm2 protein-protein interaction without affecting its in vit
ro inhibitory activity. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
