MOTS-C 10mg is a synthetic 16-amino-acid mitochondrial-derived peptide (MDP) supplied for laboratory and in-vitro research use only. Encoded within the mitochondrial 12S rRNA region, MOTS-C is studied as a signaling molecule that appears to translocate to the nucleus under metabolic stress, positioning it as a useful reference compound for investigators examining crosstalk between mitochondrial and nuclear genomes.

In cell-culture and preclinical models, researchers reference MOTS-C when studying the AMPK-dependent regulation of cellular energy balance, glucose handling, and metabolic gene expression. Its mitochondrial origin makes it a compound of interest for in-vitro work on bioenergetics and adaptive stress responses.
