Mitochondria-Derived Peptide

MOTS-c is a mitochondrial-derived peptide (MDP) encoded within the mitochondrial 12S rRNA region, a member of a small class of peptides expressed from the mitochondrial genome rather than nuclear DNA. That origin is what makes it distinct in metabolic research.

In vitro and preclinical studies examine AMPK activation, glucose uptake and insulin-signaling pathways, metabolic-stress and exercise-mimetic responses, and nuclear translocation under metabolic stress. It is frequently grouped with SS-31 and NAD+ in mitochondrial and cellular-energy research, though its mechanism as a genome-encoded signaling peptide is unique. Supplied as a lyophilized 10-vial kit across 10mg to 40mg sizes for in vitro research use only.

Common Questions

Mots-c FAQ

What is Mots-c?+
Mots-c is a Mitochondria-Derived Peptide supplied for laboratory research. Mitochondria-derived peptide investigated in vitro for metabolic pathway regulation, insulin signaling mechanism modeling, and cellular stress response research.
How does MOTS-c work?+
MOTS-c is a mitochondria-derived peptide that, in research models, is associated with activation of the AMPK energy-sensing pathway and regulation of metabolic and insulin signaling.
What is lyophilized Mots-c, and how is it reconstituted?+
Mots-c is supplied as a lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder, a dehydrated form that keeps the peptide stable during shipping and storage. In the laboratory it is reconstituted (returned to liquid form) using a solvent such as bacteriostatic water, added slowly against the side of the vial, which is then swirled gently, never shaken, until the powder fully dissolves. All handling is for in vitro research use only.
How should Mots-c be stored?+
Store the lyophilized Mots-c powder at -20°C, protected from light and moisture, where it remains stable long-term. Once reconstituted, keep it refrigerated (2-8°C) and use it within the timeframe appropriate for your research protocol.
What is the purity of Mots-c, and how is it tested?+
Every batch of Mots-c is produced to a purity of 99% or higher. Purity and molecular identity are verified using standard analytical methods: high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) to measure purity, and mass spectrometry (MS) to confirm the peptide's molecular weight.
