MOTS-c is a 16-amino-acid mitochondrial-derived peptide, studied in laboratory research on AMPK activation, mitochondrial-nuclear signalling and cellular metabolism.
MOTS-c (mitochondrial open reading frame of the 12S rRNA type-c) is a 16-amino-acid peptide encoded by a short open reading frame within the mitochondrial 12S rRNA gene. It belongs to the small family of mitochondrial-derived peptides.
Research interest centres on communication between mitochondria and the nucleus. Laboratory studies examine AMPK activation, the folate–methionine cycle, nuclear translocation of the peptide under metabolic stress, and glucose metabolism in cultured cell models.
Each vial contains 40 mg of MOTS-c as a lyophilized powder. Reconstitute with bacteriostatic water (sold separately) before laboratory use. The COA & Testing tab lists the tested batch, with links to verify it on COA Coalition and with the laboratory.
Click “Verify on COA Coalition” or scan the QR code — the coalition page shows the tested product and its results.
In the “Find your vendor” box, enter our business name exactly as shown: Natura Peptides
A “Verified” result confirms we are a registered member of that tested batch.
To check with the laboratory directly, click “Verify at the lab” and enter the search code in the lab's COA lookup.
Compare the product, strength and lot on the COA with your vial label. If anything does not match, contact us before use in research.
Why isn’t our name printed on the COA? As a COA Coalition member, batch samples are submitted to the laboratory through the coalition, so the lab lists the coalition as its client. Member vendors are registered with the coalition instead of being printed on the PDF — that is why you confirm us by entering our business name on the coalition's verify page or by finding the COA on our coalition profile.
Formula and molecular weight are shown only where printed on our batch COA.
Lyophilized materials are shipped at ambient temperature. On receipt, store sealed vials refrigerated (2–8 °C) or frozen (−20 °C) for long-term storage, protected from light and moisture. Follow your laboratory's own handling and safety procedures.
