These are published properties of the molecule, given for identification. Values we cannot confirm are omitted rather than estimated. What these terms mean.
What this compound is
Thirteen residues opening with a pyroglutamate ring, which is drawn. The pyroglutamate form is the one that circulates; without it the peptide is cleared far faster.
Sequence
2RPRLSHKGPMPF
This sequence uses notation outside the standard twenty one-letter codes — a lowercase letter marks a D-amino acid, and other symbols mark modified or non-standard residues. It is reproduced exactly as published rather than normalised, and no residue composition is derived from it.
