A peptide encoded by the mitochondrial genome.
MOTS-C is a mitochondrial-derived peptide, meaning its sequence is encoded within the mitochondrial genome rather than the cell's nuclear DNA — a discovery that expanded the understanding of how mitochondria communicate with the rest of the cell.
Research into MOTS-C has focused on its role as a regulator of metabolic homeostasis, including studies of the AMPK pathway and how the peptide appears to translocate to the nucleus under conditions of metabolic stress to influence gene expression.
CellTheory supplies MOTS-C as a lyophilized research peptide, characterized by HPLC and mass spectrometry, with a batch-specific Certificate of Analysis for every lot.
