Description
The transactivating transcriptional activator (TAT) peptide, a cell-penetrating peptide with a specific amino acid sequence (YGRKKRRQRRRC), which has the special ability to aid translocation across the plasma membrane, is widely used to modify the anticancer drug carriers, and indeed improve the drug accumulation deep in tumor tissues.

About TFA salt
Trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) is a common counterion from the purification process using High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC). The presence of TFA can affect the peptide's net weight, appearance, and solubility.
Impact on Net Weight: The TFA salt contributes to the total mass of the product. In most cases, the peptide content constitutes >80% of the total weight, with TFA accounting for the remainder.
Solubility: TFA salts generally enhance the solubility of peptides in aqueous solutions.
In Biological Assays: For most standard in vitro assays, the residual TFA levels do not cause interference. However, for highly sensitive cellular or biochemical studies, please be aware of its presence.
