Description
Product Overview
GHK-Cu (Gly-His-Lys Copper Peptide) is a biologically active tripeptide–metal complex formed by the coordination of copper(II) ions with the GHK peptide sequence. In research settings, GHK-Cu is studied for its role in cell signaling modulation, metalloprotein regulation, and peptide-driven biochemical processes.
Due to its interaction with copper-dependent mechanisms, GHK-Cu is frequently employed as a model compound in laboratory investigations involving:
- Extracellular matrix signaling pathways
- Peptide–metal complex behavior
- Copper-mediated redox mechanisms
- Gene expression and enzymatic pathway research
- Regenerative and structural biology models
