Description
MRFA is used as a calibration standard in mass spectrometry (ESI).The tetrapeptide has been shown to be a competitive inhibitor of an enkephalin-generating endopeptidase isolated from rat brain. MRFA is a substrate for dipeptidyl peptidase III from human erythrocytes and for snapalysin.

About TFA salt
Trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) is a common counterion from the purification process using High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC). The presence of TFA can affect the peptide's net weight, appearance, and solubility.
Impact on Net Weight: The TFA salt contributes to the total mass of the product. In most cases, the peptide content constitutes >80% of the total weight, with TFA accounting for the remainder.
Solubility: TFA salts generally enhance the solubility of peptides in aqueous solutions.
In Biological Assays: For most standard in vitro assays, the residual TFA levels do not cause interference. However, for highly sensitive cellular or biochemical studies, please be aware of its presence.
