Melanotan I, which researchers buy melanotan 1 peptide, is a synthetic, linear tridecapeptide analogue of the endogenous alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone. It features specific structural modifications—the substitution of norleucine for methionine at position 4 and D-phenylalanine for L-phenylalanine at position 7 —which significantly enhance its resistance to rapid enzymatic degradation by serum endopeptidases.
