ARA 290
ARA 290 is a synthetic 11-amino-acid peptide derived from the helix B region of erythropoietin. Supplied as a lyophilized powder in sealed vials. Each batch has its own certificate of analysis (COA), which opens when you scan the QR code on the label. For laboratory research use only. Not for human or veterinary use.
ARA-290 research profile
ARA-290 (cibinetide) is an 11-residue peptide designed from the aqueous face of helix B of erythropoietin. It was built to engage the EPOR/CD131 "innate repair receptor" without stimulating red-cell production, and was described by Brines, Cerami and colleagues in 2008.

Frequently asked questions
What is cibinetide?
The international nonproprietary name for ARA-290.
What does pGlu mean?
Pyroglutamate, a cyclized N-terminal glutamine or glutamate residue.
How do I verify my lot?
Scan the QR code on the vial. It opens the certificate of analysis for that lot, with HPLC purity and the mass spectrometry identity result.
