The peptide is engineered with a fatty-acid moiety to extend its circulation time (half-life ~6 days), allowing for once-weekly dosing [2]
Research indicates proteasome enzymes may not be able to correctly cleave these irregular proteins, which could possibly result in a more toxic species

The decrease in TRAP1 expression, as mentioned earlier, also impacts cholesterol metabolism
Several factors may hinder the absorption of natural food folate, e.g., partial release from the food matrix (incomplete liberation from cellular structures), destruction within the gastrointestinal tract, and incomplete hydrolysis of polyglutamates to monoglutamates (possibly mediated by partial inhibition of deconjugation enzymes by other dietary constituents such as organic acids)
