Description
Selank is a synthetic heptapeptide — a chain of seven amino acids — with the sequence Thr-Lys-Pro-Arg-Pro-Gly-Pro. It was first described in the late 1990s. Structurally, Selank is based on tuftsin, a naturally occurring tetrapeptide (Thr-Lys-Pro-Arg) that is a fragment of the heavy chain of immunoglobulin G (IgG). The design extended tuftsin by adding a Pro-Gly-Pro tripeptide tail — the same stabilizing extension used in Semax — to slow enzymatic degradation.
The compound has the molecular formula C33H57N11O9, a molecular weight of 751.87 g/mol, and a CAS number of 129954-34-3. It is also known by the designations TP-7 and Selanc. Selank is supplied as a white to off-white lyophilized powder that is readily soluble in water. The Pro-Gly-Pro motif resists cleavage by prolyl endopeptidases, which gives Selank greater stability in solution compared to the parent tuftsin fragment, which is rapidly degraded.

Finally a reliable Selank source. The CAS number matched, packaging was professional, and international shipping took only 8 days. My research protocols depend on consistent peptides, and this delivered
Nathan Price –
Excellent product. Selank arrived with a clear label, proper handling instructions, and vacuum-sealed cap. Our lab has seen reproducible results across multiple trials. Will definitely order again
Isabella Russo –
Third time ordering Selank from PeptidesVital. Every batch has been consistent lyophilized powder with no clumping. Free shipping over $200 is a bonus. Trustworthy vendor for research peptides.
Marcus Webb –
Great experience from start to finish. Selank reconstituted clearly and worked as expected in our lab models. Customer support answered my questions about storage quickly. Highly recommended
Ethan Brooks –
Ordered Selank for the first time from PeptidesVital. Very impressed with the quality no issues with solubility. The 99% purity claim seems accurate based on my initial tests. Will be back for more
Olivia Martinez –
Selank has been a great addition to my research on stress-related pathways. The peptide arrived lyophilized perfectly, and purity looks excellent. Shipping was fast, and the vial was well sealed
