Description
Semaglutide is a synthetic analog of the naturally occurring hormone GLP-1, sharing roughly 94 percent sequence homology with the native human peptide. It acts as a selective agonist at the GLP-1 receptor, a class B G-protein-coupled receptor, triggering the Gs-coupled cyclic-AMP signaling associated with glucose-dependent incretin responses.
Structural modifications, including an aminoisobutyric acid substitution and a fatty-diacid chain, confer resistance to enzymatic cleavage and support an extended half-life. In the literature, semaglutide has been studied in the context of glucose metabolism, appetite and satiety signaling, and GLP-1 receptor pharmacology. Signal supplies it as a research-grade reference material, verified by HPLC and mass spectrometry.
