MOTS-c is a mitochondrial-derived peptide studied for AMPK activation, insulin sensitivity, and metabolic regulation in cellular research.

MOTS-c (Mitochondrial-Derived Peptide)

  • 16-amino-acid peptide encoded within the mitochondrial 12S rRNA

    Studied in cellular metabolism and energy-homeostasis research

  • Investigated for roles in metabolic-stress and insulin-sensitivity models

    Often referenced in exercise-mimetic research

  • Acts as a signaling peptide between mitochondria and the nucleus

Research Use Notes

  • Supplied as lyophilized powder

    Requires reconstitution before use

  • Research Water required for mixing (sold separately)

    Swirl gently, never shake

Storage

  • Store lyophilized vial frozen for long-term holding

  • Keep reconstituted solution at 2 to 8°C

    Stable refrigerated for up to 28 days

Handling

  • Maintain sterile workflow during reconstitution

    For laboratory research use only
