Results from this study1

No result from this study comes from a test of the peptide.

Studies that did not test the peptide alone1

In this study, Delta sleep-inducing peptide (DSIP) was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. These results are not evidence about taking Delta sleep-inducing peptide (DSIP).

    Summary
    Using isoaspartyl delta sleep-inducing peptide as the methyl acceptor, rrPIMT exhibited normal Michaelis-Menten kinetics that yielded the following constants: Km (S-adenosyl-L-methionine) = 1.1 microM, Km (peptide) = 16 microM, Vmax = 60,000 pmol/min/mg.

    In this study, Delta sleep-inducing peptide (DSIP) was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. This result is not evidence about taking Delta sleep-inducing peptide (DSIP).
