About MOTS-c
MOTS-c stands for mitochondrial open reading frame of the twelve-S rRNA type-c. It is a short peptide encoded inside mitochondrial DNA rather than the nuclear genome, and it is studied as a messenger running from the mitochondria back to the nucleus. It sits in the growth-hormone section of the catalogue, but it is not a secretagogue — it is a cellular-energy signalling molecule.
Work on it covers glucose metabolism, AMPK-pathway signalling, mitochondrial function and exercise-related metabolic adaptation. Supplied as a lyophilized powder for reconstitution in a suitable solvent under controlled conditions, ≥98% purity, COA on request. Free US shipping. Research use only.
