MOTS-C

MOTS-c – Mitochondrial Research Peptide

MOTS-c (Mitochondrial Open Reading Frame of the 12S rRNA-c) is a mitochondrially encoded research peptide referenced in studies examining its role in cellular energy metabolism, fatty acid oxidation, and metabolic homeostasis. In in-vitro assay systems, it is employed as a reagent to investigate mitochondrial interactions with insulin signalling pathways and metabolic function.

This reagent is manufactured to laboratory-grade standards and verified by High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) to confirm a purity of ≥99%. MOTS-c is supplied as a lyophilized powder for stable long-term storage and reproducible application in controlled laboratory environments.

A batch-specific Certificate of Analysis (CoA) is available on request and accompanies every order.
