Product Description
GHK-Cu is a metal–peptide complex formed by coordination of copper(II) with glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine (GHK). The peptide ligand contains three amino acids in the sequence Gly-His-Lys. GHK-Cu is chemically distinct from uncomplexed GHK and is studied in copper coordination, extracellular-matrix biology, and cellular signaling.
