GHK-Cu is a copper-binding tripeptide composed of glycine–histidine–lysine complexed with a divalent copper ion (Cu²⁺). It functions as a high-affinity copper carrier, facilitating copper transport and availability in biological systems. Upon binding, GHK-Cu has been shown to influence gene expression and cellular signaling pathways involved in tissue remodeling and repair processes. Structurally, the peptide coordinates copper through the histidine residue, forming a stable complex that is critical for its biological activity and stability.

Research applications include investigating copper-mediated enzymatic activity, modulation of gene expression related to extracellular matrix remodeling, and interactions with pathways involved in cellular repair, inflammation, and oxidative stress response.
