How is ARA-290 Used in Research?
ARA-290 is an 11-amino acid synthetic peptide derived from a structural domain of erythropoietin, supplied as a lyophilized research standard for in-vitro receptor-binding assays and structural characterization. Not for use in any living organism.
Laboratory workflows profile ARA-290 in innate-repair-receptor (IRR) binding assays. The IRR is a heterodimer of the EPO receptor (EPOR) and the beta common receptor (CD131); this receptor signature is distinct from the erythropoietic EPOR homodimer, and in-vitro binding panels are used to characterize the selectivity of the 11-amino acid fragment. Functional readouts include cytoprotection markers in preclinical cell-culture stress assays and cytokine-marker panels (TNF-alpha, IL-6) in cultured immune-cell systems.
Researchers use ARA-290 as an analytical reference standard in HPLC and LC-MS identity and purity assays, as a structural reference in mass-spectrometry and circular-dichroism characterization, and as an IRR-selective reference ligand for comparability testing of novel EPO-derived peptide fragments.
This product is supplied in a lyophilized form and requires reconstitution prior to laboratory handling. For research and laboratory use only. Not for human or veterinary consumption.
Areas of Study
In-Vitro Receptor-Binding Assays
Used as a reference ligand in EPOR/CD131 heterodimer binding panels and EPOR homodimer selectivity controls.
Structural Characterization
Characterized by mass spectrometry and circular dichroism to confirm sequence identity and secondary-structure content of the 11-amino acid peptide.
Analytical Method Development
Applied as an identity and purity reference standard in HPLC and LC-MS comparability work.
Cytokine-Marker Panels
Profiled in cultured immune-cell systems for TNF-alpha and IL-6 marker readouts under standardized in-vitro stress conditions.
Cell-Culture Cytoprotection Assays
Used in in-vitro cytoprotection assays under controlled stress conditions in preclinical cell cultures.

Certificate of Analysis (COA)
Third-Party Verified Quality
Every batch of ARA-290is independently tested by an A2LA-accredited (ISO 17025:2017) third-party laboratory using HPLC-UV/VIS for purity and measured quantity. Each COA carries the lab's signed report and a batch-specific lot number. We publish these results publicly so you can verify exactly what you're getting.
