ACE-031 (1mg)
ACE-031 is a soluble fusion protein built from the extracellular domain of activin receptor type IIB joined to an Fc fragment. It acts as a ligand trap, binding myostatin and related TGF-β family ligands before they reach the receptor.

About ACE-031 (1mg)
Because it is a receptor decoy rather than a receptor agonist, ACE-031 appears in studies that separate ligand availability from downstream SMAD signalling.
Like everything in the Peptides range, this vial is lyophilized, sealed, and accompanied by third-party purity documentation for its batch.
Research applications
ACE-031 (1mg) appears in the following research contexts. These are descriptions of published laboratory work, not instructions for use:
- Myostatin and activin ligand-trap models
- SMAD2/3 signalling assays
- Skeletal muscle differentiation studies

Handling, reconstitution and storage
Store the sealed vial of lyophilized ACE-031 at -20°C, protected from light. Allow it to reach room temperature before opening so that moisture does not condense onto the powder.
Reconstitute with bacteriostatic water directed down the inside wall of the vial rather than onto the cake, and swirl instead of shaking — mechanical agitation is the most common cause of degradation in peptide handling. Keep reconstituted solution at 2-8°C and validate its working life for your own assay conditions.
Frequently asked questions
- How is ACE-031 (1mg) supplied and stored?
- It ships as a lyophilized powder in a sealed vial. Store the lyophilized product at -20°C protected from light; once reconstituted with bacteriostatic water, keep it refrigerated at 2-8°C and use it within the window your protocol validates.
- Is a certificate of analysis available?
- Yes. Every batch is independently tested by a US laboratory and verified to exceed 99% purity by HPLC/MS. Request the COA for your batch number and we will send the report.
- How long does delivery take?
- Orders dispatch within two business days. Delivery is free within the USA on orders over $200.
- Can ACE-031 (1mg) be used in humans or animals?
- No. This product is sold strictly for research, laboratory and analytical purposes. Human and animal consumption is prohibited.
