Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0004139A1] A complex is described for delivery to a cell comprising inserting a nucleic acid into a reverse micelle. The reverse micelle has the property to compact the nucleic acid for easier delivery. Other molecules are used to interact with the nucleic acid-micelle complex to further enhance delivery such as a surfactant having a disulfide bond.
