Product Information

• Name: Leu-Gly-Gly
• Synonyms: L-Leucyl-Glycyl-Glycine
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Leu-Gly-Gly is a cyclic peptide that binds to fibrinogen and forms stable complexes with the enzyme form of human serum albumin. It is used as a model system for studying the structure of proteins, and has been shown to bind calcium ions. Leu-Gly-Gly is also an amide and can form stable complexes with basic proteins such as fibrinogen. This peptide also has significant cytotoxicity against polymorphonuclear leucocytes, which may be due to its ability to inhibit polymerase chain activity.
