Description
MOTS-c (Mitochondrial Open Reading Frame of the 12S rRNA Type-c) is a synthetic 16-amino acid mitochondrial-derived peptide (MDP) with the sequence MRWQEMGYIFYPRKLR, molecular formula C₁₀₁H₁₅₂N₂₈O₂₂S₂, a molecular weight of approximately 2,174.55 Da, and CAS number 1627580-64-6. MOTS-c is one of the few known peptides encoded by the mitochondrial genome (within the 12S rRNA gene, MT-RNR1), making it a key research tool for studying mitochondria-to-nucleus retrograde signaling.
In laboratory research, MOTS-c is utilized in AMPK activation studies (via ATIC inhibition and AICAR accumulation in the folate-methionine cycle), GLUT4 translocation and glucose uptake assays, skeletal muscle cell metabolism experiments, exercise-responsive metabolic change investigations, and mitochondrial retrograde signaling pathway research.
Supplied as a lyophilized powder with ≥99% purity verified by HPLC. For storage and handling conditions, refer to the Certificate of Analysis provided with each lot.
