Testagen is a synthetic tetrapeptide bioregulator supplied as a lyophilized powder for laboratory research. Its sequence is Lys-Glu-Asp-Gly (4 residues). Researchers study it in testicular tissue models, where short peptides are used as tools for examining sequence-specific binding and protein interactions. Kimera Chems supplies this material for controlled laboratory studies only.
Chemical Composition & Purity
Testagen has the molecular formula C₁₇H₂₉N₅O₉ and a molecular weight of 447.44 g/mol. It appears as a white to off-white lyophilized powder. Purity for this lot is documented on its batch-specific Certificate of Analysis, available for batch KC-TTG-RED1.
Research Applications
Testagen is used as a reference peptide in cell-free and in vitro systems. Its 4-residue sequence gives a defined three-dimensional shape, and the side chain charges determine how it behaves in binding studies.
- Receptor Binding: Measuring peptide-protein affinity in cell-free systems.
- Competitive Assays: Examining displacement of labeled ligands.
- Structural Studies: Analyzing folding patterns in solution.
- Stability Testing: Monitoring degradation under various conditions.
Storage & Handling Protocol
Store at controlled room temperature, sealed and protected from light.
Storage guidance is a house recommendation. Analytical documentation is per-lot release testing.
Compliance & Usage Disclaimer
This product is for Research Use Only (RUO). It is not for human or animal consumption or clinical application. Kimera Chems supplies Testagen strictly to qualified institutions and researchers.
