Description

KPV is a short synthetic tripeptide composed of lysine, proline, and valine. It corresponds to the three-amino-acid sequence Lys-Pro-Val and is also referenced in chemical databases as MSH (11-13).

Its compact, well-defined molecular structure makes KPV suitable for controlled scientific research involving peptide characterization, molecular interaction studies, biochemical pathway analysis, analytical comparison, and other non-clinical experimental systems.

PubChem lists KPV as a tripeptide with the molecular formula C₁₆H₃₀N₄O₄ and molecular weight of 342.43 g/mol.

Research Applications

KPV may be examined in laboratory environments involving:

• Peptide identity and characterization
• Molecular interaction research
• Biochemical signaling studies
• Structure-function analysis
• Analytical peptide comparison
• Stability assessment
• Non-clinical cellular or molecular models

Any experimental findings should remain limited to the specific research system in which they were generated and should not be interpreted as evidence of therapeutic efficacy, clinical effectiveness, or suitability for human use.

Structural Information

KPV consists of three amino-acid residues:

Lys-Pro-Val

Its one-letter sequence is:

KPV

PubChem represents the peptide as H-KPV-OH, confirming the free N-terminal and carboxyl-terminal form in the referenced structure.

Analytical Identification

Analytical characterization may include:

• Sequence confirmation
• Molecular mass assessment
• Chromatographic purity testing
• Peptide identity verification
• Lot-specific quality analysis

If the supplied material is present as a salt or counter-ion form, use the applicable molecular information from the product-specific Certificate of Analysis.

Specifications & Documentation

Lot-specific documentation should be reviewed for:

• Peptide identity
• Amino-acid sequence
• Molecular formula
• Molecular weight
• Purity specification
• Salt or counter-ion form
• Analytical testing
• Lot or batch information
• Certificate of Analysis
• Storage requirements

Product-specific analytical records should take precedence over generic reference information.

Storage & Handling

Store according to the conditions stated on the product label and Certificate of Analysis. Protect the material from environmental conditions that could compromise peptide integrity.

Follow established laboratory procedures appropriate for research materials.
