Epithalon/307297-39-8/Bacterial endotoxins

Description

Epitalon is a tetrapeptide composed of four amino acids—Ala, Glu, Asp, and Gly—linked by peptide bonds. It functions as an anti-aging agent and telomerase activator, and is used in the treatment of cancer and retinitis pigmentosa. Epitalon scavenges free radicals and inhibits oxidative stress-induced apoptosis. It also promotes T-cell differentiation and enhances immune responses.

FAQ：

What kinds of reports can be provided?

If needed, Gotop Bio can provide you with reports such as COA (Certificate of Analysis), HPLC (High-Performance Liquid Chromatography), and MS (Mass Spectrometry) for the corresponding peptides.

What are small molecular peptides?

Peptides are formed by multiple amino acids connected through peptide bonds. The difference from proteins is the number of amino acids that make up the molecule. Oligopeptides, consisting of 2-9 amino acids, are also known as small molecular peptides, with an average molecular weight of amino acids being 128 Da. Therefore, the molecular weight of oligopeptides is generally less than 1000 Da.

Are polypeptides harmful to humans?

Peptides, which are naturally present in the human body, are generally safe for use. However, some peptides may have specific pharmacological activities, and it is advisable to consult with a doctor or a professional before using them.

What is the direction of synthesis of peptides?

Peptide synthesis is from the C-terminus to the N-terminus of the polypeptide.
