Mechanism of Action
About TB-500
TB-500 is a synthetic peptide that reproduces the active region of Thymosin Beta-4 (TB4), a 43-amino-acid peptide expressed in almost every cell type. The fragment is described as corresponding to amino acids 17-23 (LKKTETQ), the region associated with actin binding.
