mitochondrial ORF of the twelve S rRNA-c · MOTSc · mitochondrial-derived peptide
Mitochondrial-derived peptide studied in metabolic and exercise-physiology research.
About MOTS-c
MOTS-c is a mitochondrial-derived peptide encoded within the mitochondrial 12S rRNA, studied in metabolic-regulation and exercise-physiology research. It is a reference mitochondrial-derived peptide. TagPep is adding MOTS-c as a research-use-only reference material.
Mechanism studied in research
Studied for translocation to the nucleus and modulation of AMPK-associated metabolic-stress pathways in cellular and metabolic research models.
Areas of research investigation
- Mitochondrial-signaling research
- AMPK and metabolic-stress assays
- Exercise-physiology models
- Insulin-sensitivity studies
Laboratory handling
Lyophilized; reconstituted with sterile or bacteriostatic water for research and refrigerated; powder frozen and light-protected.
MOTS-c research FAQ
What makes MOTS-c unusual?
It is encoded in mitochondrial DNA rather than the nuclear genome, making it a reference 'mitochondrial-derived peptide' in metabolic research.
Is MOTS-c available now?
It is on the research roadmap. Contact TagPep to be notified when a documented batch is released.
Research use only. MOTS-c is supplied as a laboratory reference material for in-vitro and research applications. It is not a drug, supplement or medical product, and is not intended for human or veterinary use, consumption, or clinical application.
