Axon Biolabs supplies high-purity MOTS-c mitochondrial peptide standards () for research institutions investigating nuclear-mitochondrial communication. MOTS-c is a 16-amino acid peptide encoded by the mitochondrial 12S rRNA gene, recognized for its role in regulating metabolic homeostasis, folate cycle interactions, and AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) activation in vitro.
This MOTS-c mitochondrial peptide provides a specialized reference tool for bioenergetic assays. Researchers monitoring cellular energy production and metabolic pathways often examine MOTS-c in tandem with fundamental metabolic cofactors like our NAD+ coenzyme standard.
