Technical record
- CAS number
- 110431-82-4
- Molecular weight
- 502.5 Da
- Sequence class
- peptide
- Molecular formula
- C20H33N5O9
- Appearance
- White to off-white lyophilized powder
- Solubility
- Hydrophilic. Readily soluble in water (e.g., ultrapure water, PBS pH 7.4) at concentrations up to 10 mg/mL. For optimal stability, reconstitute immediately prior to use and store aliquots at -20°C or below.
- Mechanism record
- Pancragen (Lys-Glu-Asp-Trp) is a Khavinson 4-residue chemical sequence bioregulator targeting pancreatic islet cells. It binds AT-rich DNA motifs in pancreatic gene promoter regions, stimulating beta-cell insulin synthesis and modulating glucose-dependent gene expression. Studies show improved glucose tolerance and normalized insulin secretion patterns in aging animal models.
- Half-life record
- ~20–30 minutes (SubQ, plasma)
Recorded receptors
- Pancreatic beta-cell receptors
- islet cell gene expression targets

Limitations and research boundary
Research use only. Not for human or veterinary use. Public catalog information is limited to chemical identity, analytical documentation, and external reference records.
External records are attributed references. Their presence does not convert a source-reported observation into a product claim.
