Abstract
The present invention provides a cell penetrating peptide dimer by oxidative modification, in which each monomer is connected with each other by the disulfide linkage. The drugability of the peptide dimer has been improved through enhancing stability, reducing proteolysis, retaining permeability and increasing heparan sulfate binding specificity. The modified peptide products can be used to deliver drug molecules as a suitable drug carrier for targeted therapy.
