FAQ

What is the mechanism of action for the YFLLRNP peptide?

The YFLLRNP peptide functions as an antagonist to the thrombin receptor, inhibiting thrombin-induced platelet activation while triggering partial activation through shape changes in platelets.

Can this peptide be used in vivo studies?

This peptide is primarily intended for in vitro studies. Its effects on human platelets make it suitable for laboratory experiments but caution should be exercised when considering in vivo applications.

How should I store the PAR-1 Antagonist 1 peptide?

For optimal stability, store the PAR-1 Antagonist 1 peptide at -20°C. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles to maintain its integrity.
