MOTS-c (10mg) – Mitochondrial-Derived Peptide (MDP)

Overview

MOTS-c (Mitochondrial Open Reading Frame of the 12S rRNA-c) is a naturally occurring 16-amino acid peptide encoded by the mitochondrial genome. As a member of the Mitochondrial-Derived Peptide (MDP) family, MOTS-c is a primary subject of study in retrograde signaling—the process by which mitochondria communicate with the nuclear genome to regulate cellular homeostasis.

Primary Research Objectives

In vitro and in vivo research models utilize MOTS-c to investigate the following biochemical pathways:

• AMPK Signaling: Research into the activation of the AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) pathway.

• Mitochondrial Proteostasis: Studies focusing on how MDPs influence cellular stress responses.

• Glucose Transporter Kinetics: Investigation of the GLUT4 translocation process in cellular models.

• Metabolic Flux Analysis: Observation of lipid and glucose oxidation rates in laboratory environments.

• Epigenetic Regulation: Studying the interaction between mitochondrial peptides and nuclear gene expression.

Handling & Storage

• Stability: Lyophilized powder is stable at room temperature for 90 days, but -20°C storage is recommended for long-term integrity.

• Post-Reconstitution: Once reconstituted with an appropriate laboratory buffer (e.g., Bacteriostatic Water), the solution must be stored at 2°C to 8°C.
