Ipamorelin is a synthetic pentapeptide with a C-terminal amide, originally designated NNC 26-0161. Its sequence includes two non-standard residues — α-aminoisobutyric acid (Aib) at position 1 and D-2-naphthylalanine at position 3 — plus a D-phenylalanine at position 4. That combination of D-amino acids and a non-proteinogenic residue is what distinguishes it analytically from conventional L-peptides of similar mass.
Supplied as a lyophilised powder in a sealed single-use vial.
