Research compound
MT-1
MT-1 (Melanotan I, afamelanotide, CAS 75921-69-6) is a linear alpha-MSH analog specified with a Nle4, D-Phe7 substitution pattern that raises MC1R binding affinity and confers DPP-IV resistance relative to native alpha-MSH. As the MC1R reference agonist in melanocyte culture models, it is used to characterize eumelanin synthesis pathways via the cAMP-MITF-MC1R cascade. The linear structure and defined receptor selectivity profile distinguish it from Melanotan 2 for studies requiring individual melanocortin receptor subtype resolution. For laboratory research use only.
