Abstract

A purpose-designed anthraquinone-horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-cell penetrating peptide hybrid 1 showed high and effective cell permeability. Furthermore, 1 exhibited enzymatic activity without photo-irradiation, whereas significant self-degradation and loss of enzymatic activity occurred upon photo-irradiation in living cells.
