What is MOTS-c?
MOTS-c is a mitochondrial-derived peptide composed of 16 amino acids, naturally encoded in the mitochondrial genome. It plays a regulatory role in cellular metabolism, insulin sensitivity, and energy homeostasis. Unlike most peptides that originate in the nucleus, MOTS-c is unique in that it is encoded by mitochondrial DNA, giving it a distinct pathway for metabolic regulation.
In research settings, MOTS-c has been studied for its ability to activate AMPK, a key regulator of energy balance, and to support cellular resilience during metabolic stress. It is being explored for its potential applications in models of obesity, aging, and exercise performance.
