Product Description
About MT-2
MT-2 (Melanotan II) is a synthetic, cyclic heptapeptide analog of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH) with a conformation-constraining lactam bridge, supplied as a lyophilized powder for in vitro research use. In the laboratory it is used as a reference reagent for melanocortin receptor-affinity and signal-transduction assays (MC1R, MC3R, MC4R, MC5R) in cellular models.
Available in 10 mg vials at ≥98% (HPLC); every order includes a lot-specific Certificate of Analysis. See our guide on how to read a peptide COA.
