About Thymosin Alpha-1

Thymosin alpha-1 was first isolated from thymosin fraction 5, a calf thymus extract, and later shown to be the N-terminal fragment of the larger protein prothymosin alpha. It is 28 amino acids long with an acetylated N-terminus; the synthetic peptide carries the international nonproprietary name thymalfasin.

Despite the shared name, it is structurally unrelated to thymosin beta-4 (TB-500). The thymosins are a historical grouping of thymus-derived peptides, not a single protein family.

Research context

Thymosin alpha-1 is studied in research on T-cell maturation, dendritic-cell function and Toll-like receptor signaling (TLR2 and TLR9), in cell culture and animal models of immune challenge.

Thymosin Alpha-1 is also the active ingredient of licensed pharmaceutical products in some markets. The material listed here is supplied for laboratory research only; it is not a pharmaceutical product and must not be used as one.

What to confirm for Thymosin Alpha-1

Thymosin Alpha-1: frequently asked questions

Is thymosin alpha-1 related to TB-500?

Only by name. Thymosin alpha-1 comes from prothymosin alpha and is studied in immune signaling; thymosin beta-4 (TB-500) is an actin-binding peptide. Their sequences are unrelated.

Which Thymosin Alpha-1 presentations are listed?

2 presentations are listed: 5 mg (TA5), 10 mg (TA10). Each is packed 10 vials per box, and every presentation has its own specification page and product code.

How do I request a quote for Thymosin Alpha-1?

Open the presentation you need and use Ask price to message PureForm Biosciences on WhatsApp, or add several materials to the inquiry cart and send them together. Pricing, current availability and lot documents are confirmed in that conversation.
