General description

A 42-mer synthetic peptide (GTNECLDNNGGCSHVCNDLKIGYECLCPDGFQLVAQRRCEDI-NH2) that contains a calcium binding site of EGF-A. Binds to the proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) in a pH and calcium-dependent manner (Kd = 300 nM at pH 5.2 and 1.0 µM at pH7.4 and at 2 mM calcium) and blocks its interaction with LDL receptors (IC50 = 3.4 µM) and VLDL receptors (IC50 = 4.7 µM). Acts as a poor inhibitor of PCSK9 - Apo-ER2 interaction even at high concentrations (~200 µM). Blocks the degradation of mature LDL receptors in HepG2 cells in a dose-dependent manner (~1.5 to 15 µM).

Please note that the molecular weight for this compound is batch-specific due to variable water content.
