Oligopeptide-76 is a chemical compound, a class of biomolecules in abbreviated form, a synthetic protein composed of 13 amino acids linked together among them: alanine, aspartic acid, glutamic acid, glycine, isoleucine, leucine, lysine, phenylalanine, and serine.
Synthetic peptides can be generated as copies of protein fragments by incorporating non-proteinogenic amino acids and modifications to enhance the proteolytic stability of the molecules. Peptides are used in the development of therapeutic drugs for their antimicrobial activity, and for their bioactive interest.

What it is used for and where
Cosmetics - INCI Functions
Skin conditioning agent. It is the mainstay of topical skin treatment as it has the function of restoring, increasing or improving skin tolerance to external factors, including melanocyte tolerance. The most important function of the conditioning agent is to prevent skin dehydration, but the subject is rather complex and involves emollients and humectants that can be added in the formulation.
