Overview
The gp91 ds-tat peptide is a powerful NADPH oxidase inhibitor designed specifically for research into reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in the kidney. NADPH oxidase is a pivotal source of superoxide, a type of reactive oxygen species, and is critical in various physiological processes. This peptide features the gp91phox sequence linked to the HIV-tat peptide, enhancing its ability to penetrate cellular membranes. This property makes the gp91 ds-tat a valuable tool for researchers studying oxidative stress and its implications in kidney function.
