Abstract

The present invention provides a conjugate capable of passing the blood-brain barrier comprising a bioactive peptide or protein incapable of passing the blood-brain barrier and a carrier peptide which exhibits substantially no bioactivity and which is capable of passing the blood-brain barrier. The conjugate makes it possible to allow a bioactive peptide or protein incapable of passing the blood-brain barrier to easily pass the blood-brain barrier for uniform transport to the brain without any side effect of the carrier peptide.
