Description
Melanotan II (MT-2) is a synthetic cyclic heptapeptide and structural analog of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH). The compound's defining structural characteristic is a lactam bridge — an internal bond that cyclizes the amino acid chain, yielding enhanced resistance to enzymatic degradation.
