BPC-157

How to read this emblem

The ring is the amino-acid sequence, one arc per amino acid, starting at the top and continuing clockwise. Colors match the sequence beads: special, negative, positive, and hydrophobic. A gap means the chain is linear. The outer halo is the compound family. BPC-157 has no end modifications or bound metal, so none are drawn.

BPC-157 is a chain of 15 amino acids from a much larger peptide that a Zagreb team reported in stomach juice in 1993.
