Melanotan-1(MT-1)

MT1 (Melanotan I)

Melanotan I is a synthetic trideca analog of α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH) engineered with specific amino acid substitutions to enhance metabolic stability and receptor binding affinity. This incorporates norleucine at position 4 and D-phenylalanine at position 7, modifications that significantly extend biological half-life compared to native α-MSH while maintaining full melanocortin receptor agonist activity. Supplied in lyophilized form for laboratory research applications, MT1 demonstrates resistance to enzymatic degradation and sustained receptor activation in experimental models. Manufactured under strict GMP protocols with independent third-party HPLC-UV-MS verification.
