Based on the natural human GLP-1 molecule, the eighth (alanine → alpha-aminobutyric acid) and the 34th amino acid (lysine → arginine) were substituted, while lysine at the 26th was linked to the C18 adipose acid side chain by spacer group. After the modification of human GLP-1 molecule, Smeiglutide can resist the degradation of dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP-4), bind closely to albumin, significantly prolong the half-life in vivo, achieve once a week administration, and retain up to 94% of GLP-1 amino acid sequence homology, with good safety.
