What is MOTS-c?

MOTS-c is a 16-amino-acid peptide encoded in the mitochondrial genome rather than the nucleus, one of a small family of mitochondrial-derived peptides. It is studied as a signalling molecule that links mitochondrial state to metabolic regulation, exercise response and cellular stress pathways such as AMPK. Pepstral supplies MOTS-c as a lyophilized powder, 10 mg net peptide per vial, with the certificate for the current lot published before listing.

What is MOTS-c studied for?

  • AMPK activation and metabolic-regulation assays
  • Skeletal muscle and exercise-response models
  • Insulin-sensitivity and glucose-uptake studies
  • Mitochondrial-derived peptide signalling research

All applications above are in-vitro or preclinical research contexts. MOTS-c is sold for laboratory research only and is not for human or animal use.

What does the certificate for lot MC-2609-E show?

Every lot of MOTS-c is tested by an independent US laboratory before it is listed. The report for lot MC-2609-E is in the COA library and the lot number printed on the vial matches it. The current results:

How is MOTS-c handled and stored?

Sealed vials are stored at -20°C away from light and keep for 24 months. To reconstitute, add bacteriostatic water slowly down the inside wall of the vial and swirl until clear; never shake. Once in solution, keep at 2 to 8°C and use within the 28-day window on the certificate. The reconstitution guide covers volumes and syringe units and the concentration table gives the numbers for this vial.

Frequently asked questions

What makes MOTS-c different from other peptides in the catalog?

It is encoded by mitochondrial DNA, in the 12S rRNA region, which is why it is used in studies of mitochondria-to-nucleus signalling.

What purity does lot MC-2609-E show?

99.1% by HPLC-UV, identity confirmed by LC-MS, endotoxin below 0.5 EU per mg.

Is MOTS-c in a bundle?

Yes. The Longevity stack pairs it with GHK-Cu and NAD+ at a 10% saving.

Is MOTS-c for human use?

No. Every product on this site is sold for in-vitro laboratory research only and is not for human or animal consumption, diagnostic or therapeutic use.
