Where to Buy MOTS-C for Research
MOTS-C is a small peptide encoded in mitochondrial DNA, studied in research on how cells sense and manage energy. Here is how to buy it well.
What MOTS-C is, in research terms
Most peptides are encoded in the DNA in a cell's nucleus. MOTS-C is different: it is encoded in the small, separate genome inside mitochondria — the structures that produce most of a cell's usable energy. It belongs to a young class of compounds researchers call mitochondrial-derived peptides.
Since it was first described in 2015, MOTS-C has become one of the most-studied compounds in mitochondrial research. Published work looks at how cells sense and respond to energy demand, and at how mitochondria communicate with the rest of the cell.
What to look for when you buy MOTS-C
- Exact amount on the label, with the compound named plainly.
- Sealed lyophilized powder, shipped promptly.
- Documentation on request for the lot you received.
- A supplier who treats it as a research material. MOTS-C attracts a lot of hype; buy from someone who does not add to it.
