  • Description
    There is no cure or prevention treatment for Type 1 Diabetes (T1D). Insulin peptide InsB:9-23 (SHLVEALYLVCGERG) and HLA-DQ8 molecule are key elements in T1D development. A retro-inverso-d-amino acid based peptide RI-EXT (ffGGreGcvlylaevlhsG) could block the binding between InsB:9-23 and HLA-DQ8. RI-EXT blocks the presentation of InsB:9-23 to autoreactive T-cells. RI-EXT could lead to innovative therapies for the treatment of T1D.
  • Storage Guidelines
    Normally, this peptide will be delivered in lyophilized form and should be stored in a freezer at or below -20 °C. For more details, please refer to the manual: Handling and Storage of Synthetic Peptides

  • 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.
