Liraglutide
First-generation GLP-1 receptor agonist with established clinical efficacy. Acylated peptide with albumin binding for extended half-life, approved for daily administration in diabetes and obesity treatment.
Liraglutide is a 31-amino acid synthetic peptide analog of human glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) with 97% amino acid sequence homology to endogenous human GLP-1(7-37). It is a long-acting GLP-1 receptor agonist featuring a unique C16 fatty acid (palmitic acid) side chain conjugated to Lys26 via a glutamic acid spacer, enabling prolonged half-life through albumin binding. Liraglutide is the first acylated GLP-1 analog to achieve once-daily dosing, establishing the foundational design principle for modern GLP-1 therapeutics.
