Comment: Palopegteriparatide is a synthetic parathyroid hormone mimetic prodrug. Structurally it is an N-terminally PEGylated fragment of amino acids 1-34 of the mature human peptide (84 aa) [1]. Palopegteriparatide is inactive at the PTH receptor until the peptide-PEG linker is cleaved, releasing the active PTH(1-34) peptide.
