ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to the use of a carboxy-terminal fragment of the Ki-67 protein or of an active part, fragment or homologue thereof as a compound that can be used for intracellular transfer and for the introduction in and the release by the cells. The invention further relates to transfer compounds that contain the above-mentioned Ki-67 protein and to the vectors encoding the same. The invention also relates to corresponding pharmaceutical compositions and to the use of the transfer protein as an excipient or active agent in the treatment of diseases.
