## Abstract In this study, cationic and amphiphilic oligopeptides, (A)~12~(H)~5~(K)~10~ (AK27) and (A)~12~(H)~5~(K)~15~ (AK32), were designed and tested as a nonviral gene vector. The oligopeptides had critical micelle concentrations (CMC) of 0.9 and 1.1 mg mL^โ1^ respectively, indicating that they
