MOTS-c 10mg

MOTS-c is a mitochondrial-derived peptide, a small signaling molecule encoded not by the cell's nuclear DNA but within the mitochondrial genome itself. Its name reflects this origin — Mitochondrial Open reading frame of the Twelve S rRNA type-c — and it consists of a short 16-amino-acid sequence. Catalogued under CAS number 1627580-64-6, the molecule carries the empirical formula C101H152N28O22S2 and a molecular weight of approximately 2,174.6 g/mol. In its research-grade form it presents as a white lyophilized powder. MOTS-c was identified relatively recently, emerging from research into the mitochondrial genome's capacity to encode functional peptides beyond the proteins of the respiratory chain. Its discovery added to a growing class of mitochondrial-derived peptides and drew attention because it appeared to act as a signaling molecule rather than a structural component. This positioned MOTS-c as a focal point for laboratory work exploring communication between mitochondria and the wider cell. In the research literature MOTS-c is studied primarily in the context of metabolic regulation, with particular interest in its proposed influence on cellular energy pathways. Investigators have examined its association with metabolic stress responses and its potential role in how cells adapt to changing energy demands. The precise pathways through which it acts, and the conditions that govern its activity, remain active and unresolved areas of study. The available data on MOTS-c derives primarily from preclinical laboratory and animal-model research examining mitochondrial signaling and cellular metabolism. This work is exploratory in nature, and the compound has not been established as safe or effective for any application in humans. ITide Labs supplies MOTS-c strictly as a research chemical intended for laboratory research purposes by qualified professionals.
