Therefore, there is a need to develop conceptually new strategies to transport and deliver proteins or nucleic acids inside cells. In this regard, in this PhD thesis, we present the development of novel cell-penetrating peptides and polymeric platforms based on amphipathic scaffolds, which are decorated with functional reactive moieties for enhaced specificity and tunability using dynamic covalent bonds such as alkoxyamines or hydraones. These new vectors were employed in the delivery of proteins, such as lectins and Cas 9 for CRISPR technology, and challenging nucleic acids such as mRNA, following a fully supramolecular strategy.engAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internacionalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/Cell-penetrating peptidesPolyhydrazonesSupramolecular chemistryAmphiphilesMaterias::Investigación::23 Química::2304 Química macromolecular::230418 Polipéptidos y proteínasNew designs of peptidic and polymeric vectors for protein and gene deliverydoctoral thesisopen access
