Lys-(des-Arg9, Leu8)-Bradykinin trifluoroacetate salt (CAS 71800-37-8)
QUICK LINKS
Lys-(des-Arg9, Leu8)-Bradykinin trifluoroacetate salt is a modified peptide used in biochemical research to study the function and behavior of bradykinin receptors. This particular analog of bradykinin is designed with specific residue substitutions to alter its interaction with bradykinin receptors, providing insight into receptor binding specificity and activation mechanisms. The removal of the Arginine at the ninth position and the replacement of the eighth position with Leucine result in a peptide with distinctive properties compared to the native bradykinin peptide. The trifluoroacetate salt form enhances the solubility of the compound in various solvents, which is beneficial for in vitro experimental setups. Researchers employ Lys-(des-Arg9, Leu8)-Bradykinin trifluoroacetate salt in assays to investigate the physiological pathways regulated by bradykinin and its analogs, such as inflammatory responses and cardiovascular functions.
