Mitochondrial Peptide
MOTS-c
Mitochondria-Derived Regulatory Peptide
MOTS-c (Mitochondrial Open Reading Frame of the 12S rRNA Type-c) is a 16-amino acid peptide encoded within the mitochondrial genome. It represents a novel class of mitochondria-derived peptides (MDPs) and has attracted significant research interest for its metabolic regulatory functions and its ability to translocate to the nucleus under stress conditions.
