MOTS-C 10mg — Mitochondria-Derived Research Peptide
MOTS-C 10mg is a mitochondria-derived peptide (MDP) encoded within the mitochondrial 12S ribosomal RNA gene. As a mitochondria-derived signalling molecule, MOTS-C has attracted significant research interest for its involvement in cellular energy regulation, metabolic homeostasis, and mitochondrial biogenesis. It represents a growing area of mitochondrial biology research, where peptides arising from the mitochondrial genome are being investigated for their roles in systemic physiological regulation.
Research Applications
Research on MOTS-C has focused on its capacity to activate AMPK (AMP-activated protein kinase) pathways, modulate glucose metabolism, and influence one-carbon metabolism and folate cycle activity. Studies have investigated its role in regulating the cellular response to metabolic stress, enhancing mitochondrial function under energetically demanding conditions, and its potential as a messenger molecule capable of translocating to the nucleus to regulate gene expression relevant to metabolic adaptation.
Formulation & Purity
Supplied as a high-purity white lyophilised powder, this product exceeds >99% purity as verified by HPLC analysis. Its freeze-dried formulation ensures long-term structural stability, maintaining peptide integrity throughout storage and transport. Researchers may reconstitute the compound using bacteriostatic water or a sterile diluent suited to their experimental protocol.
Intended Use
MOTS-C 10mg is intended exclusively for in vitro and non-clinical scientific research. It is not approved for human or animal therapeutic, diagnostic, or medicinal use. All handling and experimentation must be conducted by trained professionals within appropriate controlled laboratory environments.
