Product Description: 2-Iodomelatonin is a potent agonist of melatonin receptor 1 (MT1) with a Ki value of 28 pM, it is more 5-fold selective for MT1 over MT2[1]. 2-iodomelatonin can be used to identify, characterize and localize melatonin binding sites in the brain and peripheral tissues[1].
Applications: Neuroscience-Neuromodulation
