Acetyl tetrapeptide-5
is used in cosmetic eye formulations to decrease puffiness, eye bags, and dark circles by reducing edema and protecting proteins such as SOD from glycation
Alanine
Ala / A · hydrophobic residue · neutral charge
AOD-9604
is studied as an anti-obesity peptide that can reduce weight gain and increase fat oxidation in obese animal models with generally neutral effects on IGF-1 and glucose metabolism in early human trials
Arginine
Arg / R · basic residue · positive charge
Argireline
is a topical cosmetic peptide reported to decrease dynamic wrinkles by partially mimicking the mechanism of botulinum toxin in a non-invasive manner
Asparagine
Asn / N · polar residue · neutral charge
Aspartic acid
Asp / D · acidic residue · negative charge
BPC-157
is investigated for accelerating healing of gastrointestinal mucosa, tendons, ligaments, bone, and nervous tissue in preclinical models, with anti-inflammatory and pro-angiogenic effects
Sequence builder
Build a peptide sequence from amino acids and view sequence-derived properties such as length, approximate mass, residue composition, and hydrophobicity.
Add residues by search, pick from the amino-acid palette, or paste exact 3-letter tokens and 1-letter codes. Unsupported codes are flagged rather than guessed.
Accepts exact 3-letter amino-acid codes separated by spaces, commas, slashes, or hyphens, or a continuous 1-letter sequence.
The sequence display updates from the currently selected canonical amino acids only.
3-letter format
No residues selected
1-letter format
No residues selected
These values are derived directly from the selected residues and the amino-acid metadata file. Mass is shown as an approximate peptide mass using stored residue masses plus water.
