Batch MOT10.269 99% purity Tested 26 Mar 2026
MOTS-c (Mitochondrial Open Reading Frame of the 12S rRNA-c) is a 16-amino acid peptide encoded within mitochondrial DNA rather than the nuclear genome. It is classified as a mitochondrial-derived peptide (MDP) and is investigated as a signalling molecule in research into cellular biochemical regulation under metabolic stress conditions.
Research into MOTS-c examines its interaction with the folate-methionine cycle and downstream AICAR levels in experimental systems. In preclinical models, it is investigated for its role in AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) signalling pathway research. Studies focus on translocation dynamics and gene expression patterns under controlled laboratory conditions.
