MOTS-c 10mg Overview
MOTS-c 10mg from Peptide Science is the high-strength single-vial format of the 16-amino-acid mitochondrial-derived peptide, supplied as a lyophilised powder for extended in-vitro and preclinical bioenergetic research. The 10 mg pack supports longer cell-culture series or repeat-passage protocols using one of the most-cited mitochondrial-genome-encoded research peptides.
Compound Class and Mechanism
MOTS-c (Mitochondrial Open Reading frame of the Twelve S rRNA-c) is a 16-amino-acid mitochondrial-derived peptide encoded within the mitochondrial 12S ribosomal RNA gene. The peptide has been characterised in preclinical research as a mitochondrial-genome-encoded signalling molecule with reported effects on insulin sensitivity, AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) pathway activation, and metabolic homeostasis in cell-culture and animal-model studies. MOTS-c is one of the small but growing family of characterised mitochondrial-derived peptides alongside Humanin and SHLP1-6.
