What Is MOTS-C?

MOTS-C (Mitochondrial Open Reading Frame of the 12S rRNA Type-C) is a naturally occurring peptide encoded within mitochondrial DNA. It consists of 16 amino acids and is classified as a mitochondrial-derived peptide (MDP), a group of signaling molecules involved in regulating cellular metabolism and maintaining mitochondrial health.

Because mitochondria play a central role in energy production, researchers have focused on MOTS-C to better understand how mitochondrial communication influences metabolism, glucose regulation, oxidative stress responses, and cellular adaptation.

Its unique origin and biological activity distinguish MOTS-C from many traditional peptide compounds, making it an increasingly valuable tool in metabolic and longevity research.
