Studies that did not test the peptide alone1

In this study, MGF / PEG-MGF 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 MGF / PEG-MGF.

    In gas-phase mass spectrometry, dehydroalanine residues produced signature c- and z-ion backbone cleavages in cations derived from melittin, MGF and ubiquitin.

    In plain wordsIn lab tests, a mass spectrometry method cut MGF and two other proteins at chosen sites. This is a method result.

    Summary
    The Dha residues facilitate preferential backbone cleavages to produce signature c- and z-ions, demonstrated with cations derived from melittin, mechano growth factor (MGF), and ubiquitin.

    In this study, MGF / PEG-MGF 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 MGF / PEG-MGF.
