Overview
What it is
GHK-Cu is the copper(II) coordination complex of glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine (GHK), a tripeptide with the sequence Gly–His–Lys. Copper(II), written Cu2+, denotes the metal’s oxidation state.
The peptide acts as a ligand: donor atoms in the peptide coordinate the copper ion. Coordination chemistry distinguishes GHK-Cu from the metal-free GHK peptide. Published studies characterize these complexes using methods such as potentiometry, UV–visible spectroscopy, and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR).
Documentation
Catalog notes
GHK-Cu is the copper complex; GHK is the peptide ligand. The 100 mg label refers to the listed material, not elemental copper.
The COA reports the submitted sample results. The scientific reference explains copper–peptide coordination.
