Usage

General Description

(MET(O)4,D-LYS8,PHE9)-ACTH (4-9) is a synthetic peptide that mimics the structure and function of the naturally occurring adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH). It contains the amino acid sequence corresponding to positions 4-9 of the ACTH peptide, and it has been modified with a methionine sulfoxide group at position 4 and D-lysine and phenylalanine at positions 8 and 9, respectively. This modification enhances the peptide's stability and bioactivity, making it a useful tool for studying the physiological and pharmacological effects of ACTH in research settings. Specifically, (MET(O)4,D-LYS8,PHE9)-ACTH (4-9) has been used to investigate the role of ACTH in the regulation of adrenal steroidogenesis and other biological processes.
