  • Publication number: 20220380764
    Abstract: Disclosed are compositions comprising a nucleic acid sequence conjugated to one or more MGS peptides. Disclosed are methods of modifying gene expression of a gene of interest comprising administering to a cell a composition comprising a nucleic acid sequence conjugated to one or more MGS peptides, wherein the nucleic acid sequence binds to the RNA transcribed from the gene of interest, the gene of interest or a sequence upstream of the gene of interest. Disclosed are methods of targeting a gene of interest in an intracellular target comprising administering to a cell a composition comprising a nucleic acid sequence conjugated to one or more MGS peptides, wherein the MGS peptide targets the intracellular target, wherein the nucleic acid sequence binds to the RNA transcribed from the gene interest in an intracellular target.
