GR 135531
Chemical Name: 5-Methoxycarbonylamino-N-acetyltryptamine
Purity: ≥97%
Biological Activity
Binds with high affinity to MT3 melatonin sites in hamster brain, and low affinity (and no efficacy) at MT1 and MT2 melatonin receptors and thus can be used to discriminate between the melatonin receptor subtypes.Technical Data
The technical data provided above is for guidance only.
