Used in research as a peptide-based compound to study cell signaling and receptor interactions due to the presence of arginine and tyrosine residues that can influence biological activity. Its sequence includes motifs known to interact with kinases and other regulatory proteins, making it useful in the development of biochemical assays. Often employed in studies related to peptide hormone function and protein-protein interactions. May serve as a scaffold in designing therapeutic peptides or probes for molecular biology applications.
