IGF-1 LR3 – Long-Acting IGF-1 Analogue for Research Applications
IGF-1 LR3 (Insulin-like Growth Factor 1 Long Arg3) is a synthetic
research peptide derived from the naturally occurring IGF-1 protein.
This extended variant (LR3) is designed for laboratory research focused on
cell growth, muscle tissue development, and metabolic signal transduction
under in-vitro conditions.
IGF-1 LR3 contains an extended N-terminal peptide chain with an arginine substitution
at position 3, resulting in an increased half-life and enhanced receptor-binding
capacity in research models. The product is verified using
High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) to ensure a purity of
≥ 97.8%.
