Description
Overview: MOTS-c is a mitochondrial-encoded peptide shown to influence metabolic homeostasis and AMPK signaling in multiple experimental contexts. It is frequently studied in skeletal muscle metabolism, insulin sensitivity models, stress/metabolism signaling, and mitochondrial-to-nuclear communication.
Storage guidelines: Store lyophilized peptide at –20°C to –80°C, desiccated; aliquot after reconstitution to reduce freeze-thaw cycles.
Solubility: Generally water-soluble; reconstitute in sterile water or physiological buffer.
Research areas of interest:
-
Mitochondrial-derived peptide signaling
-
AMPK activation and metabolic regulation
-
Exercise-mimetic pathways and metabolic stress responses
