This peptide is derived from the C-terminus of the chemokine, complement fragment 5 anaphylatoxin (C5a). This peptide functions as a C5a receptor agonist. C5a is a plasma protein involved in cellular inflammatory processes by inducing chemotaxis, degranulation of leukocytes, increased vascular permeability, and cytokine production. The cyclohexylalanine at position 5 is crucial to agonist function. Arg at the last position is of the d-isomer.

Tubulin protein has been purified from porcine brain by an adaptation of the method of Shelanski et al. (1), Further purification to >99% purity was achieved by cation exchange chromatography. Tubulin is supplied as a white lyophilized powder. Fully active for polymerization, this product is lyophilized with a patented technology for increased stability and longevity. T240 is stable for 1 year at 4°C desiccated.
