Description

MOTS-c Description

MOTS-c (Mitochondrial Open Reading Frame of the 12S rRNA-c) is a mitochondria-derived peptide discovered in 2015 that functions as a mitochondrial-encoded regulatory signal. The 16-amino acid peptide is encoded by the mitochondrial genome within the 12S rRNA gene and represents an important link between mitochondrial function and metabolism. MOTS-c primarily targets skeletal muscle and acts as a metabolic regulator by activating the AMPK (AMP-activated protein kinase) pathway, which is crucial for cellular energy homeostasis.
