Metabolic
A GLP-1 receptor agonist studied in preclinical metabolic research.
Type
Synthetic peptide (acylated, 31 residues)
Molecular formula
C187H291N45O59
Molecular weight
~4,114 g/mol
CAS number
910463-68-2
Amino acids
31
Fatty acid chain
C18 diacid
Modification
Aib8 and Arg34 substitutions; Lys26 C18 fatty-diacid acylation via gamma-Glu and two AEEA linkers.
A GLP-1 analogue (two substitutions from human GLP-1) that binds the GLP-1 receptor, a class B GPCR. The Aib8 substitution resists DPP-4 cleavage; the C18-diacid side chain provides reversible albumin binding.
Research Focus
Used as a reference GLP-1R agonist in receptor-pharmacology and preclinical metabolic research.
Lyophilized
-20°C (-80°C long term)
powder typically stable ~24 months.
Reconstituted
-20°C ~1 month
2-8°C for short-term use only.
Avoid freeze-thaw; protect from light; keep sealed and dry. Self-associates in aqueous solution.
