MOTS-c, short for Mitochondrial Open Reading Frame of the 12S rRNA Type-c, is a naturally occurring mitochondrial-derived peptide (MDP) consisting of 16 amino acids. Unlike many research peptides that originate from nuclear DNA, MOTS-c is encoded by mitochondrial DNA, making it a unique area of investigation within mitochondrial biology and cellular metabolism. Researchers continue to study MOTS-c for its involvement in mitochondrial signaling, AMPK activation, metabolic regulation, exercise physiology, cellular stress responses, and healthy aging research. Most evidence to date comes from preclinical and laboratory studies, and human efficacy remains under investigation.
Our MOTS-c research peptide is available in multiple vial strengths to support a wide variety of laboratory protocols and scientific investigations, with every vial manufactured under stringent quality standards.
