What is MOTS-c?
MOTS-c is a 16-amino acid peptide encoded in the mitochondrial genome, studied in in-vitro cellular and mitochondrial research models. Available in 10mg and 40mg lyophilized vials. The 10mg lot GPU-4301315 was independently third-party tested to 99.39% purity (Horizon Analytical verified). For in-vitro laboratory research use only. Not for human consumption.
MOTS-c is a 16-amino-acid peptide encoded within the mitochondrial 12S rRNA gene, one of a class of mitochondrial-derived peptides (MDPs). Each vial from Genetic Peptides USA is manufactured for in-vitro and laboratory research and is shipped from within the USA.
MOTS-c is studied in metabolic and aging research for AMPK activation, glucose metabolism, and mitochondrial-nuclear signaling in cell and animal models. The information on this page summarizes published scientific context for educational purposes and is not a claim of any therapeutic effect.
Every batch of MOTS-c is independently third-party tested using HPLC (high-performance liquid chromatography) for purity and mass spectrometry (MS) for identity confirmation. Where a Certificate of Analysis is available for the current lot, it is displayed on this page. Researchers should verify the lot number on the vial against the COA for their records.
MOTS-c is supplied as a lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder, which is the most stable form for shipping and storage. Store unopened vials in a cool, dry place away from light; refrigeration at 2–8°C or freezing at -20°C is standard laboratory practice for long-term storage. Once reconstituted with a suitable solvent such as bacteriostatic water, keep refrigerated and follow your institution's handling protocols.
Where can I buy MOTS-c in the USA? Genetic Peptides USA ships MOTS-c research peptide vials from within the United States with tracking on every order.
Is MOTS-c third-party tested? Yes. Batches are tested by an independent laboratory using HPLC/MS for purity and identity.
What form is MOTS-c supplied in? A lyophilized powder in a sealed vial, intended for reconstitution in a laboratory setting only.
Research Use Only: MOTS-c is sold strictly for laboratory research use only. It is not for human or animal consumption, not a drug, food, or cosmetic, and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. Purchaser assumes responsibility for proper handling in accordance with applicable laws.
