PubChem Database → BIOLOGICAL ORIGIN
Parent molecule & position
Derived fromSynthetic tetrapeptide modeled on the bovine pineal peptide complex Epithalamin (Khavinson group, St. Petersburg Institute of Bioregulation and Gerontology)
Parent lengthN/A — derived from the heterogeneous Epithalamin peptide complex rather than a single parent sequence
PositionN/A — designed sequence (Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly) based on Epithalamin amino acid composition, not cleaved from a specific parent protein
Receptor associationNo defined cell-surface receptor; reported nuclear and chromatin interactions in telomere-related research models
