Research overview

About this compound

Semaglutide is a synthetic analog of human glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1). It has an alpha-aminoisobutyric acid substitution at position 8 that blocks cleavage by dipeptidyl peptidase-4, and a C18 fatty-diacid side chain on lysine 26 that promotes albumin binding.

How it is used in research

It is a selective agonist of the GLP-1 receptor and is used in receptor-pharmacology research.

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. Results for a specific lot appear under Lab results once they have been posted.
