KPV is a synthetic tripeptide of the sequence Lys-Pro-Val, corresponding to the C-terminal fragment of α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH), produced by solid-phase peptide synthesis and supplied as a lyophilized powder. Because it lacks the core His-Phe-Arg-Trp motif required for binding at known melanocortin receptors, it is studied as a structurally distinct tripeptide rather than as a receptor agonist, in research examining NF-κB signaling and di/tripeptide-transporter (PepT1) uptake kinetics. Every lot is verified to ≥99% purity by HPLC. Supplied for in vitro research use only — not a drug, food, cosmetic, or dietary supplement.

Research highlights

NF-κB Signaling Research+

Studied in research examining NF-κB signaling in epithelial cell models.

PepT1 Transporter Kinetics+

Characterized in di/tripeptide-transporter uptake research.

Structurally Distinct Tripeptide+

Lacks the motif for melanocortin-receptor binding; studied as a distinct entity, not an agonist.

Solubility & Storage+

Lyophilized powder. Soluble in bacteriostatic or sterile water. Store refrigerated (2–8 °C), protected from light.

Purity & Batch Verification+

≥99% purity by HPLC, identity confirmed by mass spectrometry; every batch ships with an independent ISO/IEC 17025 certificate you can verify.
