Abstract
Peptide-macromolecule complexes for delivery of nucleic acid to a cell. The nucleic acid carrier includes a binding complex. The binding complex contains a binding moiety which noncovalently binds to the nucleic acid. The binding complex can also contain a binding moiety which is associated with a surface ligand, nuclear ligand or a lysis agent. These may be associated with the binding moiety by spacers. In addition, the carrier may include a nucleic acid with a combination of the above binding complexes or binding moieties.
