TB-500 – Thymosin Beta-4 Fragment for Research
TB-500 is a synthetic research peptide corresponding to the N-acetylated 17–23 fragment of human thymosin beta-4. Its compact seven-amino-acid sequence, Ac-LKKTETQ, represents an important region associated with actin-related cellular processes.
This clearly defined molecular structure makes TB-500 particularly relevant for professional laboratory studies involving actin dynamics, cytoskeletal organisation, endothelial-cell behaviour, cellular migration and peptide structure–activity relationships.
TB-500 is supplied as a premium lyophilised research material in a securely sealed vial with clear batch information, professional packaging and fast order processing from Peptides Divas.

What Is TB-500?
TB-500 is a synthetic heptapeptide identified as the N-terminally acetylated 17–23 fragment of human thymosin beta-4.
Its amino-acid sequence is:
Ac-Leu–Lys–Lys–Thr–Glu–Thr–Gln
The abbreviated sequence is:
Ac-LKKTETQ
TB-500 contains the central actin-binding motif associated with thymosin beta-4, but it is a separate and much smaller research compound than full-length thymosin beta-4.
This distinction is important because TB-500 and complete thymosin beta-4 have different molecular sizes, analytical profiles and research characteristics.
TB-500 Versus Thymosin Beta-4
TB-500 is often incorrectly described as being identical to thymosin beta-4.
Full-length thymosin beta-4 is a naturally occurring 43-amino-acid protein involved in actin regulation. TB-500 is a synthetic seven-amino-acid fragment derived from one region of that protein.

Actin-Related Research
Actin is an essential cellular protein involved in maintaining cell structure, movement and cytoskeletal organisation.
The LKKTETQ region is associated with the actin-binding domain of thymosin beta-4, making TB-500 relevant for research involving:
- Actin-related cellular processes
- Cytoskeletální organizace
- Cell shape and structural dynamics
- Actin polymerisation models
- Actin-binding interactions
- Cellular movement
- Focal adhesion pathways
- Cell-to-matrix communication
- Comparative actin-binding research
- Peptide–protein interactions
The exact behaviour of the isolated TB-500 fragment may differ from the activity of complete thymosin beta-4.
Cellular Migration Research
Cellular migration is a complex process involving actin remodelling, cytoskeletal organisation, adhesion proteins and extracellular signals.
TB-500 may be relevant for controlled laboratory research involving:
- Buněčná migrace
- Endothelial-cell movement
- Migrace fibroblastů
- Cytoskeletální přeskupení
- Buněčná adheze
- Cell spreading
- Actin-dependent movement
- Vztahy mezi koncentrací a odezvou
- Srovnávací peptidový screening
- Migration-assay development
These research areas describe experimental cellular pathways and do not represent guaranteed biological or therapeutic outcomes.
Endothelial-Cell Research
Endothelial cells form the inner lining of blood vessels and are frequently used in laboratory research involving migration, adhesion and vascular signalling.
Potential TB-500 research applications include:
- Endothelial-cell migration
- Endothelial-cell adhesion
- Tubule-formation models
- Cell-sprouting assays
- Vascular signalling
- Angiogenesis-associated pathways
- Cytoskeletální organizace
- Cell–matrix interactions
- Comparative endothelial assays
- Molecular-response analysis
Research involving thymosin beta-4 and its actin-binding region has examined endothelial migration and vessel-sprouting mechanisms in preclinical models.
Cytoskeletal Research
The cytoskeleton is a dynamic network that supports cell shape, intracellular transport, movement and division.
TB-500 may be useful for studies examining:
- Actin-filament organisation
- Cytoskeletal remodelling
- Cellular polarity
- Cell-shape changes
- Intracellular transport
- Migrace buněk
- Adhesion-complex formation
- Mechanical cellular responses
- Actin-associated protein interactions
- Comparative cytoskeletal models
Its compact sequence offers researchers a convenient way to study a specific thymosin beta-4-derived region without using the entire parent protein.
Peptide Structure Research
The small and clearly defined structure of TB-500 makes it suitable for peptide chemistry and structure–activity research.
Potential research areas include:
- Synthetic heptapeptide characterisation
- N-terminal acetylation
- Stabilita peptidů
- Enzymatic degradation
- Peptide metabolite identification
- Vztahy mezi strukturou a aktivitou
- Amino-acid sequence analysis
- Molecular modelling
- Peptide–protein interactions
- Comparative fragment research
Researchers may compare TB-500 with full-length thymosin beta-4, non-acetylated LKKTETQ or shorter metabolites to examine how molecular modifications affect analytical and cellular behaviour.
Metabolite Research
Analytical research has identified several shorter TB-500-related metabolites, including:
- Ac-LKKTE
- Ac-LKK
- Ac-LK
- Ac-L
These fragments may be studied in relation to:
- Peptide degradation
- Metabolic stability
- Microsomal metabolism
- Fragment identification
- Analytical detection
- Comparative peptide activity
- Mass-spectrometry method development
