What is MOTS-c?
MOTS-c (Mitochondrial Open Reading Frame of the 12S rRNA-c) is a mitochondrial-derived peptide (MDP) involved in cellular stress response and metabolic regulation. It is studied in vitro for its role in activating AMPK pathways, regulating cellular energy metabolism, and supporting mitochondrial peptide signalling research. Supplied as a high-purity lyophilised powder, MOTS-c from Power Peptides is designed exclusively for laboratory-based studies and is not intended for human use.
