Description
MOTS-c is a 16-amino-acid mitochondrial-derived peptide encoded within the mitochondrial 12S rRNA region. It is studied as part of an emerging class of mitochondrial signalling peptides involved in communication between mitochondria and cellular regulatory pathways.
Laboratory and preclinical research has investigated MOTS-c in relation to cellular metabolism, metabolic homeostasis, stress-response pathways and mitochondrial signalling. Its biological mechanisms and potential roles remain areas of active investigation.
