description | The development of safe and efficient nonviral gene delivery carriers has received a great deal of attention in the past decade. A class of amphipathic peptides has shown to be able to cross cell membranes and deliver cargo to the intracellular environment. Here, we introduce an 18-mer amphipathic peptide, C6M1, as a modified version of peptide C6 for short interfering RNA (siRNA) delivery. The importance of tryptophan residues and the effect of peptide sequence modification on its solubility, secondary structure, cytotoxicity, and uptake efficiency were investigated. The solubility of C6M1 in aqueous solutions was greatly enhanced compared to that of C6, confirmed by surface tension and anilinonaphthalene-8-sulfonic acid fluorescence measurements. C6M1 had a random/helical structure in water with the ability to attain a helical conformation in the presence of anionic components or membrane-mimicking environments. The modification significantly reduced the cytotoxicity of the peptide, making it a safer carrier for siRNA delivery. C6M1 was also found ∼90% more efficient than C6 in delivering Cy3-labeled siRNA in Chinese hamster ovary cells. |
