Melanotan 2 (10 mg) – Research Peptide

Melanotan 2 (10 mg) – Research Peptide

Synthetic peptide analogue for the investigation of receptor activity and signal transduction in experimental models. General Description Melanotan 2 is a synthetic cyclic heptapeptide structurally related to alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH). In scientific research environments, it is used to analyze mechanisms of receptor binding and intracellular signaling pathways that may be involved in the regulation of pigmentation and endocrine processes. Due to its stable cyclic structure, Melanotan 2 serves as a widely studied model peptide for examining peptide–receptor dynamics. Chemical Properties Purity: ≥ 99% (HPLC-tested) Form: lyophilized powder Sequence: Ac-Nle-Asp-His-D-Phe-Arg-Trp-Lys-NH₂ Molecular weight: approx. 1024 Da Solubility: water-soluble after reconstitution Research Relevance In preclinical models, Melanotan 2 is used to study signaling mechanisms of melanocortin receptors and the function of G-protein-coupled pathways. The peptide is intended solely for experimental research aimed at characterizing receptor–ligand interactions. Storage & Handling Store in a cool (2–8 °C), dry place. After reconstitution, aliquot and store at −20 °C to preserve peptide structural integrity. Certificate of Analysis (COA) Each batch of Melanotan 2 is analyzed using HPLC and mass spectrometry.
