Physicochemical data

Formula, masses and identifiers from PubChem where a record exists, checked against an independent RDKit calculation and, for peptides, against the residue sequence. Theoretical pI, net charge at pH 7.4, GRAVY and the 280 nm extinction coefficient are calculated with Biopython ProtParam on the residue chain (Bjellqvist pK set; Kyte-Doolittle; Gill and von Hippel) and are marked "calculated"; they are not given where the chain contains non-proteinogenic residues.

Research Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Researchers have investigated MOTS-C in studies involving mitochondrial biology, cellular signaling pathways, gene-expression regulation, nuclear-mitochondrial communication, and experimental metabolic research models.

No. Licensed Peptides supplies MOTS-C exclusively for laboratory research purposes. It isn’t approved for human consumption, clinical use, therapeutic applications, diagnosis, treatment, cure, mitigation, or disease prevention.

Researchers, laboratories, and scientific organizations looking for high-purity research materials for analytical and experimental investigations may purchase MOTS-C.

High-purity materials reduce the likelihood of confounding variables and support more consistent experimental conditions across studies. Read more details about how peptides are made.

Mitochondrial-derived peptides are short protein fragments that are encoded by mitochondrial DNA. Researchers study these peptides because they appear to participate in cellular communication and mitochondrial signaling pathways.
