MGF, commonly referred to as Mechano Growth Factor, is a synthetic peptide corresponding to a C-terminal E-domain sequence associated with the IGF-1Ec splice variant.

Commercial research materials sold as MGF are generally based on a 24-residue peptide sequence. However, published and supplier sources show inconsistencies in terminal residues, molecular formula, calculated molecular mass, and CAS assignments.

A commonly marketed synthetic research sequence is:

YQPPSTNKNTKSQRRKGSTFEEHK

with a reported molecular mass of approximately 2.85-2.87 kDa. Current supplier references are not fully consistent on the exact CAS number or molecular formula.

Research Applications

MGF may be examined in controlled non-clinical research involving:

  • Peptide identity and characterization
  • IGF-related splice-variant research
  • Molecular interaction studies
  • Structure-function analysis
  • Analytical peptide comparison
  • Stability assessment
  • Non-clinical biochemical and cellular models

Any findings should remain specific to the applicable research model and should not be interpreted as evidence of muscle-building, recovery, performance enhancement, therapeutic effectiveness, or suitability for human use.

Structural Information

A commonly referenced MGF research sequence is:

Tyr-Gln-Pro-Pro-Ser-Thr-Asn-Lys-Asn-Thr-Lys-Ser-Gln-Arg-Arg-Lys-Gly-Ser-Thr-Phe-Glu-Glu-His-Lys

One-letter representation:

YQPPSTNKNTKSQRRKGSTFEEHK

Some references instead report terminal sequence variants such as …FEERK, creating small differences in molecular formula and calculated molecular weight. This is why the exact client COA should be treated as the controlling specification.

Analytical Identification

Relevant analytical characterization may include:

  • Amino-acid sequence confirmation
  • Molecular mass assessment
  • Terminal-residue verification
  • Chromatographic purity testing
  • Peptide identity confirmation
  • Structural characterization
  • Lot-specific quality analysis

Specifications & Documentation

Lot-specific documentation should be reviewed for:

  • Exact peptide sequence
  • Molecular formula
  • Molecular weight
  • CAS identifier, if assigned
  • Terminal structure
  • Salt or counter-ion form
  • Purity specification
  • Analytical testing
  • Lot or batch information
  • Certificate of Analysis
  • Storage requirements

Authenticated lot-specific analytical documentation should take precedence over generalized supplier records.

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.
