The disclosure provides bifunctional tag constructs and related methods useful for transporting macrobiomolecules, such as nucleic acids and proteins, across plasma membranes. The bifunctional tags comprise an affinity domain conjugated to hydrophobic domain. The affinity domain is configured to noncovalently bind to the macrobiomolecule, whereas the hydrophobic domain is configured to interact with the plasma membrane. In certain embodiments, the plurality of bifunctional tags can noncovalently associate along the length of a macrobiomolecule, thus increasing the interaction with and penetration through the plasma membrane.
