AHK-Cu Powder 1g

$30.00

 

Description

AHK-Cu is a copper-binding peptide complex made from the short sequence AHK (Ala-His-Lys) attached to a copper ion. Researchers study it because the peptide can bind copper and influence cellular signaling pathways related to growth and repair.

 

Why Researchers Use It

  • Used to explore copper-dependent cell signaling

  • Helps investigate cellular growth, regulation, and communication

  • Studied for its role in peptide–metal interactions

  • Relevant in research on skin biology, cell resilience, and regenerative processes

 

 


 

How It’s Handled in the Lab

 

  • Typically supplied as a lyophilized powder for stability

  • Dissolved into solution immediately before experimental use

  • Stored in a cool, dry, dark environment while lyophilized

  • After reconstitution: refrigerate

  • For long-term storage: freeze at –20 °C to maintain stability
