rh-Polypeptide-2 is a single chain recombinant human peptide, produced by fermentation in E. coli. The starting gene is directly isolated from a human cell which codes for Thioredoxin. It contains a maximum of 105 amino acids which may contain disulfide bonds and/or glycosylation. The protein consi…
Inventory restriction note: II/416
This section separates facts supplied by external records from structure derived only from the exact official label wording.
The official label identifies a peptide- or protein-related cosmetic material.
This structure is derived only from the official label wording. It does not establish composition, concentration, chemical equivalence, safety or regulatory permission.
Open evidence sourceNone of the 13 markets tracked here holds an imported rule under the name rh-POLYPEPTIDE-2.
That is a statement about this inventory, not about the law: no imported rule is not evidence that a substance is permitted. A rule may exist under a different name, under a CAS or EC number this glossary entry does not carry, or in a dataset not yet imported.
Thioredoxin is a small dithiol protein and specific reductant for major allergenic proteins present in foods from animal and plant products. It is a 12-kD oxidoreductase enzyme encoded by TXN and TXN2 genes that contains a dithiol-disulfide active site. It plays an essential role as an antioxidant in neutralizing food allergens and redox signalling. Allergens containing disulfide bonds are inactivated when reduced by thioredoxin. — DrugBank
