NAD+ and AHK-Cu in Metabolic and Longevity Research: A Deep Dive
A research overview of NAD+ and AHK-Cu covering mitochondrial metabolism, sirtuin activation, copper-peptide signaling, and laboratory handling protocols.

GLP-S Spray is the spray-dispensed form of GLP-S, a lipidated analog of GLP-1(7-37). Its 31-residue chain, HAEGTFTSDVSSYLEGQAAKEFIAWLVRGRG, carries aminoisobutyric acid at position 8 and an acylated lysine at position 26. Reference values are formula C187H291N45O59, average mass about 4113.58 g/mol and CAS 910463-68-2, with the C18 diacid side chain accounting for the mass above the bare backbone. Each bottle holds 45 sprays and comes in 5, 10, 20 or 30 mg strengths, supplied strictly for laboratory research use only.

The active material is GLP-S, a 31-residue peptide that tracks the human GLP-1(7-37) sequence except at two positions and bears an acyl chain on its one lysine. Veracue offers it in a spray-dispensed bottle with 45 sprays, at four strengths, for laboratory research use only.

| Part | Where | What it is |
|---|---|---|
| Peptide chain | Positions 7 to 37 of GLP-1 numbering | 31 residues, 29 of them identical to native GLP-1(7-37) |
| Aib | Position 8 | Aminoisobutyric acid in place of alanine, which blocks DPP-4 cleavage |
| Arginine | Position 34 | Replaces the native lysine, leaving lysine 26 as the only lysine |
| Acylated lysine | Position 26 | Carries the side chain on its amine |
| Spacer | Between lysine and diacid | Gamma-glutamic acid plus two OEG units (8-amino-3,6-dioxaoctanoic acid, also written AEEA) |
| Fatty diacid | End of the side chain | Octadecanedioic acid, a C18 diacid that binds albumin reversibly |
| C-terminus | Position 37 | Free acid |
Counting the residues gives one histidine, one tryptophan and two arginines, and no cysteine or methionine. There are therefore no disulfide bridges and no methionine oxidation to track, which leaves the side chain as the main structural feature to verify.
GLP1R is the receptor GLP-S is built to engage, a class B (secretin-like) G protein-coupled receptor that also binds native GLP-1. Binding and signaling studies in receptor assays are the usual setting, and the engineered changes bear on stability and albumin association, not on which receptor is engaged.
Because the diacid binds albumin reversibly, whether albumin is present in an assay system is worth recording next to the lot number. This is a note on interpreting results, not a handling or preparation instruction.
Twenty-nine of 31 residues, about 94 percent. The differences sit at positions 8 and 34 and in the acyl group, and together they change the formula, mass and CAS number.
It adds a spacer and a C18 diacid to lysine 26, so a correct lot reads near 4.1 kDa. A result near the mass of the bare backbone points to a lost side chain and should not be read as a match.
A peptide of 4113.58 g/mol seldom appears at its neutral mass in electrospray MS. It carries several charges at once, and the table gives the calculated m/z for the first four, derived from the monoisotopic mass of 4111.1154 Da with one proton mass added per charge.
| Charge state | Calculated m/z |
|---|---|
| [M+2H]2+ | 2056.56 |
| [M+3H]3+ | 1371.38 |
| [M+4H]4+ | 1028.79 |
| [M+5H]5+ | 823.23 |
These are formula-derived reference values, not Veracue lot results. An average-mass reading sits a little higher than a monoisotopic one, which is why any report has to say which convention it follows.
A record covers one lot. Confirm that its lot number matches the bottle label, that the expected mass is stated with its convention, and that the identity result speaks to the side chain and not only the backbone. A purity percentage should name its method.
