MOTS-c

MOTS-c | Mitochondrial-Derived Peptide for Metabolic Research

We offer high-purity MOTS-c, a novel mitochondrial-derived peptide recognized for its significant role in regulating cellular metabolism. This 16-amino acid peptide is encoded by the mitochondrial genome and is supplied as a lyophilized powder to ensure maximum stability and bioactivity for your in-vitro research needs.

MOTS-c is a critical tool for scientists investigating the intricate links between mitochondrial function and systemic metabolic homeostasis. It is primarily used in laboratory settings to study the activation of the AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) pathway and its downstream effects on cellular energy sensing and utilization. Its unique origin and mechanism make it an essential compound for research in metabolism, cellular biology, and gerontology.
