Description
MOTS-c is a mitochondria-encoded research peptide used in controlled in-vitro studies of cellular metabolism, stress-response signalling, and mitochondrial bioenergetics under non-clinical conditions.
MOTS-c — 10 mg
This 16-amino-acid peptide originates from an open reading frame within the mitochondrial 12S rRNA region. Consequently, laboratories select it to explore pathways related to metabolic sensing, redox balance, and adaptive responses in model systems.
For laboratory research only. Not for human use.

Handling & storage
- Storage (dry): Keep vials protected from light and moisture.
- Reconstitution: Bring vial and diluent to room temperature. Reconstitute with
Bacteriostatic Water 10 ml. Swirl gently—do not vortex. - After reconstitution: Store at 2–8 °C, protect from light, use aliquots to reduce handling, and avoid repeated temperature cycling.
- Compatibility: Use only within research protocols that follow your lab’s SOPs and local regulations.

About MOTS-c in research
Researchers use MOTS-c to probe metabolism-linked signalling and adaptive stress responses in cell systems. Typical applications include assessing readouts related to redox state, mitochondrial function, and downstream transcriptional responses—exclusively within controlled, non-clinical in-vitro environments.
Synthesis & quality
Manufactured via controlled, validated peptide-synthesis processes to deliver high purity and lot-to-lot consistency. Each batch undergoes identity, purity, and appearance checks before release.
