Melanotan II is a cyclic heptapeptide analogue of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone, closed by a lactam bridge between the aspartate and lysine side chains.
Melanotan II is a cyclic heptapeptide analogue of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone, closed by a lactam bridge between the aspartate and lysine side chains.
It is a non-selective melanocortin receptor agonist, active across several receptor subtypes - which distinguishes it from PT-141, its C-terminal free-acid metabolite, which shows a different subtype selectivity profile.
The tryptophan residue and the conjugated ring system make it among the more light-sensitive items in the catalogue. Keep vials in opaque packaging throughout handling.

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, protected from light. Reconstituted: 2-8 C, use within 30 days.

Melanotan II is C-terminally amidated; PT-141 carries a free acid. That changes melanocortin receptor subtype selectivity.
A covalent link between the aspartate and lysine side chains that closes the peptide into a ring.
Among the most in the catalogue. Keep it in opaque secondary packaging at all times.
Melanotan II is supplied for in-vitro laboratory research only.
