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
A dipeptide of glutamate and tryptophan. The indole ring is most of the mass.
Sequence
| 1 | EW |
|---|
- Three-letter code
- Glu-Trp
The one-letter code gives the amino-acid backbone. Terminal modifications, where a compound carries them, are accounted for in the molecular weight above but are not visible in the letters.
Residue composition
Counted directly from the sequence above. Thymogen is built from 2 of the twenty standard amino acids across 2 positions.
By residue
