Description

Kisspeptin-10, 10 mg

Buy Kisspeptin 10 mg for laboratory research, supplied as lyophilized powder in one boxed 3 mL vial.

This product contains human Kisspeptin-10, CAS 374675-21-5. Its ten-amino-acid sequence is YNWNSFGLRF with a C-terminal amide. Kisspeptins are studied as ligands of the GPR54 receptor, also known as KISS1R.

Vial amount and peptide length are different

The 10 in Kisspeptin-10 denotes ten amino acids; 10 mg is the labeled quantity in this vial. These are separate specifications. The reference peptide has formula C63H83N17O14 and molecular weight approximately 1302.4 g/mol, excluding counterions and fillers.

Longer kisspeptins can share the same terminal sequence while having different molecular weights. Use the Kisspeptin-10 identity when comparing experimental materials.

How the receptor ligands were identified

Kotani and colleagues’ discovery study isolated kisspeptin-54, -14 and -13 from human placental material. These peptides shared an RF-amide terminal motif and bound to rat and human GPR54 expressed in CHO-K1 cells.

The investigators measured several signaling responses, including calcium mobilization and kinase phosphorylation. Receptor binding and these downstream responses are related but distinct measurements. The study establishes a research framework for defined ligands; the longer ligands examined there should not be treated as measurements of this Kisspeptin-10 product.

Review the product record before selection

COA & Documents contains the available batch reports and product files. Match the name and lot, then check which identity, purity and content tests were performed. The supplied fragment and terminal form are specified above; batch reports document the measurements made on the tested sample.

Use handling and storage guidance applicable to the supplied form and your laboratory method. The 3 mL vial capacity is a packaging specification, not a solvent-volume instruction. This product is a research powder rather than a prepared solution or medical formulation.
