MOTs-C

Description

MOTs-C is a 16-amino-acid peptide encoded within the mitochondrial 12S rRNA region — one of a small class of mitochondrial-derived peptides studied in molecular biology research.

It is referenced in published in vitro laboratory research examining AMPK pathway activation, glucose uptake assays in cultured cells, and mitochondrial-nuclear signaling models.

Plumeo Research supplies MOTs-C in lyophilized form at ≥99% purity, synthesized by SPPS and verified by HPLC and mass spectrometry. A Certificate of Analysis accompanies every batch.

Supplied for in vitro and ex vivo laboratory research only. Not for human, veterinary, or clinical use.
