Description: Identification of key amino acids is required for development of efficient cell-penetrating peptides (CPPs) and has tremendous implications in medicine. Extensive research work has enlightened us about the importance of two amino acids, arginine and tryptophan, in cell penetration. Here, we present a top-down approach to show how spatial positions of two tryptophans regulate the cellular entry and nuclear localization. This enables us to develop short, non-toxic tetrapeptides with excellent potential for cell penetration and nuclear localization. Among them, Glu-Thr-Trp-Trp (ETWW) emerges as the most promising.
