Description
Product Description
MOTS-c (Mitochondrial Open Reading Frame of the 12S rRNA-c) is a mitochondrial-encoded peptide discovered as part of a group of mitochondrial-derived peptides (MDPs) that participate in cellular metabolic regulation and stress response pathways. Unlike most peptides encoded by nuclear DNA, MOTS-c originates from the mitochondrial genome and has been shown to influence cellular energy metabolism and adaptive stress signaling.
In experimental research, is widely investigated for its role in regulating glucose metabolism, insulin sensitivity, and mitochondrial-to-nuclear communication. Studies have demonstrated that MOTS-c can translocate to the nucleus under metabolic stress conditions and regulate gene expression associated with metabolic adaptation.
Because of these properties, MOTS-c has become an important research peptide in fields such as mitochondrial biology, metabolic disease modeling, aging research, and exercise physiology.
