Abstract

This invention provides bioactive conjugates. The bioactive conjugates include: (1) a cell recognition moiety that binds to αmacroglobulin receptor α2-MR and (2) a bioactive moiety which: (a) has a biological activity, (b) does not function solely as an immunogen to invoke an immune response and (c) does not have ADP ribosylating activity. The bioactive conjugates of this invention are useful in methods of transporting the bioactive moiety across a polar epithelial membrane. Thus, this invention provides methods for parenteral administration of proteins without injection.
