Description
Research Peptide
IGF-1 DES (Des(1-3)IGF-1) is a truncated variant of Insulin-like Growth Factor 1 lacking the first three N-terminal amino acids, studied for its increased receptor affinity and reduced binding-protein interaction compared to full-length IGF-1.

In the Lab
Trimming three amino acids off IGF-1 changes how strongly it binds its receptor and how much it interacts with binding proteins in the blood. Researchers use IGF-1 DES specifically to study that stronger, less-buffered signal.
