Description

Thymosin α1 (Tα1) — 5 mg, ≥98 % HPLC — research overview

Thymosin α1 is a 28-residue N-acetylated thymic peptide derived from prothymosin α. It modulates T-cell maturation, dendritic-cell function and TLR9 signalling, and is widely cited in antiviral and immuno-oncology research.

Peptide Shop supplies Thymosin α1 (1 × 5 mg vial) as a sealed research material with lot-level documentation. This product is supplied for in-vitro laboratory research only and is not intended for human use, veterinary use, therapy, diagnosis, cosmetic application or consumption.

Research applications

  • T-cell maturation and CD4/CD8 differentiation research
  • Dendritic-cell activation and TLR9-pathway studies
  • Antiviral immunology research models (HBV, HCV)
  • Immuno-oncology adjuvant mechanism studies

Sequence and analytical data

N-terminal acetylation and identity confirmed by ESI-MS. Single peak by analytical RP-HPLC.

Storage and handling

Store lyophilised at -20 °C. Stable in aqueous solution at 4 °C for short periods; aliquot and freeze at -80 °C for longer storage.

Documentation

A lot-specific Certificate of Analysis is available in EN, DE, FR and ES from the product detail page after dispatch. The CoA reports HPLC purity, identity confirmation, appearance, and storage and handling guidance for the dispatched lot.

FAQs

Is the N-terminus acetylated?

Yes — N-terminal acetylation is a defining feature of native Thymosin α1 and is required for biological activity in published research models.

How is Tα1 different from Thymalin?

Tα1 is a single defined 28-residue peptide; Thymalin is a polypeptide complex from thymic extract.

Recommended reconstitution?

Sterile PBS or 0.9% saline at 0.1–1 mg/mL; the peptide is highly soluble in aqueous buffer.
