Product Overview
IGF-DES is a truncated IGF-1 lacking the first 3 amino acids. Virtually no IGFBP binding — the most potent IGF-1 form available for studying isolated receptor activation without binding protein interference.
Research Applications
- Truncated IGF-1 with N-terminal tripeptide deletion
- Virtually zero IGFBP binding — maximal bioavailability
- ~10× more potent than native IGF-1 in receptor activation
- Endogenous form identified in human brain tissue
- Full agonist at IGF1R, cross-reactivity with IR-A at high concentrations
Key Features
- ≥99% purity confirmed by RP-HPLC and ESI-MS
- For laboratory research use only
