Research overview

About this compound

Selank is a synthetic heptapeptide (Thr-Lys-Pro-Arg-Pro-Gly-Pro). The first four residues are the sequence of tuftsin, a fragment of immunoglobulin G, followed by a Pro-Gly-Pro tail that increases resistance to peptidases.

How it is used in research

It is used in neurochemistry research in cell and animal models, including studies of enkephalin-degrading enzymes.

Analytical characterization

Synthetic peptides are usually characterized by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), which reports purity as the share of the main peak, and by mass spectrometry, which confirms that the measured molecular mass matches the expected sequence.
