MOTS-c is a 16-amino-acid mitochondrial-derived peptide encoded within the 12S rRNA region of the mitochondrial genome. Unlike nuclear-encoded peptides, MOTS-c functions as an inter-organelle signaling molecule, making it a unique research tool for investigators studying metabolic adaptation, AMPK activation, and the mitochondrial-nuclear communication axis. Our MOTS-c is synthesized to >99.6% purity with endotoxin levels below 0.1 EU/mg. The 10 mg lyophilized format is sufficient for extended cell-culture studies examining glucose uptake, insulin sensitivity, or cellular stress responses. Each batch ships with HPLC and ESI-MS verification. Researchers in the longevity and geroscience fields use MOTS-c to investigate the metabolic consequences of NAD+/NADH ratio shifts and oxidative phosphorylation efficiency. If your lab works on metabolic syndrome models or aging-related glucose dysregulation, this compound belongs in your freezer. FAQ What is MOTS-c peptide? MOTS-c is a 16-amino-acid mitochondrial-derived peptide studied in laboratory models for metabolic regulation, AMPK activation, and cellular stress adaptation. Where can I buy MOTS-c for research? You can buy research-grade MOTS-c from Haelo Labs. We offer 10 mg vials with HPLC purity verification and mass spectrometry identity confirmation. How does MOTS-c differ from NAD+? MOTS-c is a mitochondrial signaling peptide that activates AMPK, while NAD+ is a coenzyme involved in redox reactions and sirtuin activation. Researchers often study both in parallel aging models.
