H-Arg-Arg-OH is a basic dipeptide composed of two arginine molecules linked by a peptide bond[1]. Under physiological conditions, H-Arg-Arg-OH carries a strong positive charge, possesses excellent water solubility, and has specific enzymatic cleavage sites[2]. H-Arg-Arg-OH is a classic specific substrate for serine proteases such as trypsin and is commonly used in enzyme kinetics studies and enzyme activity assays. Its strong basic characteristics also make it a model molecule for studying the interaction between cationic peptides and biological membranes[2]. H-Arg-Arg-OH is suitable for biochemical research, enzymatic experiments, and as an intermediate or reference standard in polypeptide synthesis[3, 4].
