Kisspeptin-10 is the C-terminal decapeptide fragment of kisspeptin-54, the product of the KISS1 gene, and is the minimum fragment that retains full activity at the KISS1R receptor (formerly GPR54).
Kisspeptin-10 is the C-terminal decapeptide fragment of kisspeptin-54, the product of the KISS1 gene, and is the minimum fragment that retains full activity at the KISS1R receptor (formerly GPR54).
The RF-amide C-terminus is the pharmacophore for this family, and the C-terminal amidation is essential - the free-acid form is substantially less active, so amide confirmation is part of the identity assay on every lot.
The sequence is relatively hydrophobic for its length and can be slow to dissolve in neutral water. A mildly acidic diluent shortens dissolution time considerably.

Vials arrive lyophilized and sealed under nitrogen. Bring the vial fully to room temperature before breaking the seal — opening a cold vial condenses atmospheric moisture onto the cake.
Direct diluent gently against the inside wall of the vial rather than onto the cake, and allow the material to dissolve without agitation. Vortexing shears longer sequences and introduces air.
Lyophilized: -20 C, desiccated. Reconstituted: 2-8 C, use within 30 days.

Standard laboratory practice applies: appropriate personal protective equipment, no consumption, no administration to humans or animals, and disposal in accordance with institutional protocol and local regulation.

Kisspeptin-10 is the C-terminal ten residues of the 54-residue parent and retains full receptor activity.
The RF-amide terminus is the pharmacophore. The free-acid form is markedly less active, so amidation is confirmed on every lot.
Yes. The sequence is comparatively hydrophobic; a mildly acidic diluent speeds it up.
