Exendin-4
Exendin-4
Cat. No. GH-001
Structure:
H-His-Gly-Glu-Gly-Thr-Phe-Thr-Ser-Asp-Leu-Ser-Lys-Gln-Met-Glu-Glu-Glu-Ala-Val-Arg-Leu-Phe-Ile-Glu-Trp-Leu-Lys-Asn-Gly-Gly-Pro-Ser-Ser-Gly-Ala-Pro-Pro-Pro-Ser-Asn-His-NH2
Other Names:
Exenatide
Activity:
Glucagon like peptide 1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist
Exendin-4, also known as exenatide, is a high affinity glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist originally isolated from Heloderma suspectum venom. It has 50% amino acid homology to GLP-1 and a longer half-life in vivo, and potentiates glucose-induced insulin secretion in isolated rat islets. Exenatide is used to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus as an add-on treatment and has also been evaluated for the treatment of Parkinson's disease.
