Calcium-Like Peptide 3 trifluoroacetate salt

CALP-3(Calcium-Like Peptide 3 trifluoroacetate salt), VKFGVGFK, acts as a calmodulin agonist. The octapeptide interacts with the calmodulin EF-hand motif, the Ca²⁺-binding site. CALP-3 activates phosphodiesterase in the absence of calcium and inhibits Ca²⁺-mediated cytotoxicity and apoptosis. CALP-3 is more active than CALP-1. By preventing trypsin activation within pancreatiic acinar cells CALP-3 shows potential therapeutic potential in the treatment of pancreatitis.
