Description
MOTS-C is a 16-amino acid peptide encoded within the mitochondrial 12S rRNA gene, classifying it as a mitochondrial-derived peptide (MDP) — a relatively recently identified class of bioactive molecules. First described in 2015, MOTS-C has attracted substantial research interest for its role in metabolic regulation, its ability to activate the AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) pathway, and its interactions with folate and methionine metabolic cycles.
Laboratory investigations have explored its relevance to insulin sensitivity, energy homeostasis, and exercise physiology at the cellular level, as well as its potential relationship to age-associated metabolic changes. As a mitochondrially encoded peptide with systemic metabolic effects, MOTS-C represents a novel category of research compound at the intersection of mitochondrial biology and metabolic science.
Supplied as a lyophilized Research Use Only (RUO) material, analytically verified for identity and purity with batch-specific Certificate of Analysis documentation.
