The peptide Lysine-Proline-Valine, often abbreviated as KPV, is identified by its amino acid sequence. It does not have widely published research or development codes, but is referred to simply as KPV in scholarly articles. It is a tripeptide analogue derived from the protein proopiomelanocortin (POMC), although it is not a direct fragment of POMC.

Storage
For storage, lyophilized KPV should be stored desiccated at -20°C or preferably -80°C. Once reconstituted with bacteriostatic water, the stability of KPV is reduced. Store the reconstituted solution in a refrigerator at 2-8°C. For longer-term storage, freeze the solution below -20°C. It is advisable to aliquot the reconstituted solution into smaller, single-use vials before freezing to prevent degradation from repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Protect both lyophilized and reconstituted KPV from direct light by storing them in dark containers. Ensure vials are tightly capped to prevent moisture exposure and contamination.
