Structural Context
GHK-Cu is a metallopeptide complex featuring a tripeptide backbone (Gly-His-Lys) chelated to a divalent copper ion. The histidine residue provides the primary coordination site through its imidazole side chain, while the N-terminal amine and the peptide backbone contribute additional stabilization through coordination bonds. The formation of this coordination complex provides a distinct molecular architecture for analytical method development, chromatographic reference studies, UV-Vis spectral analysis, stability profiling, and metal-ligand interaction assessments in controlled laboratory environments.
Handling and Storage
The peptide is supplied in lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder form in a 100 mg vial. For optimal stability, store lyophilized material at or below -20°C. Protect from repeated freeze-thaw cycles, moisture, and prolonged exposure to light.
Research Applications
This product is manufactured and supplied as a chemical reference standard for in-vitro laboratory research applications including analytical method development, chromatographic reference studies, stability assessments, and metal-ligand interaction studies in controlled laboratory environments.
