About

About IGF-DES

IGF-DES (Des(1-3)IGF-1) is a truncated analog of human insulin-like growth factor 1, missing the first three N-terminal amino acids — a modification associated in the literature with reduced binding to IGF-binding proteins, by a different structural route than the extension used in IGF-1 LR3. Synthesized to ≥99% purity (HPLC); certificate of analysis available per batch. For laboratory research use only.
