A linear tripeptide, H-Lys-Glu-Asp-OH (single-letter KED), of L-lysine, L-glutamic acid and L-aspartic acid with free termini. Formula C15H26N4O8. Identity is reconciled against PubChem CID 87571363: the stereo-defined InChIKey LLSUNJYOSCOOEB-GUBZILKMSA-N derived from the sequence matches the deposited record exactly (molecular formula and full InChIKey), with no unassigned stereocentres. The draft had left the InChIKey pending; live PUG-REST reconciliation at build confirms it. No CAS or UNII is asserted. A computed 3D conformer is held pending the chemist sign-off.
Reference context
Vesugen is a synthetic tripeptide, H-Lys-Glu-Asp-OH (single-letter KED), of L-lysine, L-glutamic acid and L-aspartic acid from the St. Petersburg (Khavinson) line of short peptide bioregulators — the same research family as Epithalon and Pinealon. It is listed here strictly as an analytical reference entity — it is not sold, stocked, or certified by Lineará, and has no price or certificate of analysis. The data on this page is characterization only: molecular formula C15H26N4O8 and the values computed from it. No biological activity, mechanism, or use is described or implied.
Listed solely as a characterized analytical reference — no representation is made as to any biological effect. For Research Use Only — not for human or veterinary use.
How Vesugen is characterized
Identity rests on the molecular formula and mass. Electrospray mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) measures the mass-to-charge ratio of the intact molecule; the average and monoisotopic masses are computed from the verified formula and cross-check the composition. The residue sequence and the modifications noted above define the structure.
