Decaglycine(CAT: I025721) is a synthetic peptide composed of ten glycine residues, making it a highly flexible and uncharged molecule. Its structural simplicity and lack of side chains provide unique properties, making it a valuable tool in biochemical and biophysical studies. Decaglycine is commonly used in peptide research to investigate protein folding, peptide-protein interactions, and enzymatic processes involving glycine-rich regions. Additionally, its applications extend to studying the properties of glycine-based biomaterials and as a building block for designing novel peptide sequences. Decaglycine is indispensable in advancing structural biology, peptide engineering, and enzymology research.
