Description
IGF-1 LR3 | Long R3 Insulin-Like Growth Factor-1 Analog – Research Peptide
IGF-1 LR3 is an 83-amino-acid recombinant analog of insulin-like growth factor 1, modified by an arginine substitution at position three and a 13-residue N-terminal extension. These changes markedly reduce binding to IGF binding proteins in vitro.
Cell-culture research uses it to study IGF-1 receptor activation and downstream PI3K/Akt and MAPK signaling with minimal interference from binding proteins, making it a common component of serum-free culture systems.
Common research applications: IGF-1 receptor signaling studies, serum-free cell culture research, and binding protein interaction experiments.
