  • Molecular Weight: 2174.6 g/mol (commonly listed as 2174.6 or 2174.62; exact monoisotopic mass ≈2174.07 Da, varying slightly by source)

  • Amino Acid Sequence (one-letter code): MRWQEMGYIFYPRKLR

  • Full sequence (three-letter code): Met-Arg-Trp-Gln-Glu-Met-Gly-Tyr-Ile-Phe-Tyr-Pro-Arg-Lys-Leu-Arg

  • N-terminal: Methionine (Met); C-terminal: Arginine (Arg)

  • IUPAC/Full Chemical Name: (4S)-4-[[(2S)-5-amino-2-[[(2S)-2-[[(2S)-2-[[(2S)-2-amino-4-methylsulfanylbutanoyl]amino]-5-carbamimidamidopentanoyl]amino]-3-(1H-indol-3-yl)propanoyl]amino]-5-oxopentanoyl]amino]-5-[[(2S)-1-[[2-[[(2S)-1-[[(2S,3S)-1-[[(2S)-1-[[(2S)-1-[(2S)-2-[[(2S)-1-[[(2S)-6-amino-1-[[(2S)-1-[[(1S)-4-carbamimidamido-1-carboxybutyl]amino]-4-methyl-1-oxopentan-2-yl]amino]-1-oxohexan-2-yl]amino]-5-carbamimidamido-1-oxopentan-2-yl]carbamoyl]pyrrolidin-1-yl]-3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-1-oxopropan-2-yl]amino]-1-oxo-3-phenylpropan-2-yl]amino]-3-methyl-1-oxopentan-2-yl]amino]-3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-1-oxopropan-2-yl]amino]-2-oxoethyl]amino]-4-methylsulfanyl-1-oxobutan-2-yl]amino]-5-oxopentanoic acid (or similar variants; long systematic name for the linear peptide chain)

  • PubChem CID: 146675088 (primary entry; some related entries like 155885767 for human variant)

  • Appearance (typical research grade): White to off-white lyophilized powder

  • Solubility: Readily soluble in water

  • Storage: Typically -20°C (as lyophilized powder for stability); avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles

  • Other Properties:

    • Amphiphilic (due to mix of hydrophobic, hydrophilic, and charged residues)

    • High polarity from multiple Arg/Lys (basic) and Glu/Gln (acidic/amidic) residues

    • Contains two methionine (Met) residues with sulfur (contributing to S atoms in formula)

    • Predicted properties (approximate): High hydrogen bond donors/acceptors; suitable for cellular uptake studies

    • Elemental composition (approximate %): Varies but dominated by C, H, N, O, with ~2 S atoms
