Adipotide is a synthetic 25-residue research peptide supplied for controlled laboratory and analytical studies. Its structure contains a defined N-terminal peptide region together with a C-terminal segment incorporating multiple D-configured amino-acid residues.
This composition makes Adipotide structurally distinct from conventional linear peptides formed entirely from standard L-amino acids. Accurate scientific documentation should therefore preserve the stereochemical identity of the D-residues rather than relying only on a simplified one-letter sequence.
PubChem lists Adipotide with CAS 859216-15-2, molecular formula C₁₁₁H₂₀₆N₃₆O₂₈S₂, molecular weight approximately 2557.2 g/mol, and a 25-residue sequence containing multiple D-configured lysine, leucine, and alanine residues.
Research Applications
Adipotide may be examined in controlled non-clinical research involving:
- Modified peptide characterization
- Ligand-target interaction studies
- Molecular binding research
- Structure-function analysis
- Stereochemistry-focused peptide studies
- Analytical peptide comparison
- Stability assessment
- Non-clinical biochemical and cellular models
Any experimental observations should remain limited to the applicable research system and should not be interpreted as evidence of fat loss, weight-management efficacy, therapeutic effectiveness, clinical safety, or suitability for human use.
Structural Information
Adipotide contains 25 amino-acid residues.
A condensed sequence representation is:
H-Cys-Lys-Gly-Gly-Arg-Ala-Lys-Asp-Cys-Gly-Gly-D-Lys-D-Leu-D-Ala-D-Lys-D-Leu-D-Ala-D-Lys-D-Lys-D-Leu-D-Ala-D-Lys-D-Leu-D-Ala-D-Lys-OH
PubChem also represents the sequence as:
CKGGRAKDCGGKLAKLAKKLAKLAK
with the relevant residues in the C-terminal region specifically designated as D-amino acids.
Because stereochemistry is part of the compound’s identity, the D-residue assignments should be retained in technical documentation.
Analytical Identification
Relevant analytical characterization may include:
- Peptide identity confirmation
- Amino-acid sequence verification
- D-residue stereochemistry confirmation
- Molecular mass assessment
- Chromatographic purity testing
- Structural characterization
- Lot-specific quality analysis
If supplied with a salt or counter-ion, final molecular specifications should be matched to the exact preparation listed on the Certificate of Analysis.
Specifications & Documentation
Lot-specific documentation should be reviewed for:
- Compound identity
- Peptide sequence
- Stereochemical configuration
- Molecular formula
- Molecular weight
- Salt or counter-ion form
- Purity specification
- Analytical testing
- Lot or batch identification
- Certificate of Analysis
- Storage requirements
Authenticated lot-specific analytical documentation should take precedence over generalized vendor information.
Storage & Handling
Store according to the conditions specified on the product label and Certificate of Analysis. Protect the material from environmental conditions that could compromise peptide integrity.
Handling should follow established laboratory procedures appropriate for research materials.
