MOTS-C
MOTS-C is a 16-residue mitochondrial-derived peptide encoded within the mitochondrial 12S rRNA gene rather than nuclear DNA — a discovery that reframed mitochondria as active endocrine signalling organelles. It drives metabolic homeostasis largely through AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), making it a reference compound in mitochondrial, metabolic and longevity research.
