MOTS-c (mitochondrial open reading frame of the 12S rRNA type-c) is a 16-amino-acid mitochondrial-derived peptide with the sequence MRWQEMGYIFYPRKLR. It is encoded in the mitochondrial 12S rRNA gene rather than nuclear DNA.
It is supplied as a lyophilized research peptide and is studied in laboratory settings for metabolic signaling, AMPK-related pathways, and related preclinical models.
It is not approved by the FDA or any major regulator for any therapeutic use.
