Concentration

Vilon is a synthetic dipeptide consisting of L-Lysine and L-Glutamic acid (Lys-Glu). This minimal-sequence peptide is utilized in structural biology research to investigate peptide-DNA interactions, specifically the formation of intermolecular salt bridges and their potential role in chromatin remodeling dynamics. Supplied as a high-purity (>99%) lyophilized reagent strictly for in vitro laboratory analysis and cellular signaling modeling. Not for human consumption.

Reconstitution Volume:
2 mL

Type of Diluent:
Bacteriostatic Water

Sequence: Lys-Glu (L-Lysine-L-Glutamic Acid)
Format: Synthetic Dipeptide Bioregulator

Chemical Description

Vilon is a synthetic dipeptide composed of the amino acids Lysine and Glutamic acid. Due to its small molecular size and specific charge distribution, this compound is studied in biophysical chemistry for its ability to form stable intramolecular salt bridges. Research focuses on its capacity to interact with the major groove of DNA and histone proteins, serving as a model for understanding small-molecule regulation of gene expression and chromatin accessibility in vitro.
