In GIP, residue 2 is an <scene name='10/1038867/Alanine_2_-_gip/3'>alanine</scene> but in Tirzepatide, the residue changes to <scene name='10/1038867/Tirzepatide_-_aib/2'>AIB</scene>. Residue 2 is where DPP4 recognizes GIP in order to cleave and inactivate the hormone. When the residue is changed, it is no longer recognized by DPP4 because AIB is a noncoding residue, resulting in continuous signaling to the cell. | In GIP, residue 2 is an <scene name='10/1038867/Alanine_2_-_gip/3'>alanine</scene> but in Tirzepatide, the residue changes to <scene name='10/1038867/Tirzepatide_-_aib/2'>AIB</scene>.
