What Is MOTS-c Peptide?
MOTS-c belongs to a class of molecules called mitochondrial-derived peptides, short peptides encoded by the mitochondrial genome rather than nuclear DNA. Since its first description in 2015, MOTS-c has been studied in cell and animal models exploring mitochondrial-to-nuclear signaling and cellular energy pathways. Learn more in our MOTS-c research overview and mechanism of action review. Its discovery helped establish the mitochondrial genome as a source of signaling peptides, alongside related compounds such as humanin.
Is MOTS-c Peptide for Sale Third-Party Tested With a Batch COA?
Each lot of SpartaLabs MOTS-c is analyzed by an independent laboratory using HPLC to confirm identity against its 16-residue sequence and verify purity. A Certificate of Analysis matched to the batch ID on the vial is published before release. See MOTS-c sourcing and quality standards.

What Is the Difference Between MOTS-c and SS-31?
Both are mitochondria-focused research peptides, but they differ in origin and structure. MOTS-c is a naturally encoded 16-residue mitochondrial-derived peptide, while SS-31 is a synthetic four-residue peptide designed to target the inner mitochondrial membrane. Read the full MOTS-c vs SS-31 comparison.
What Is the Regulatory Status of MOTS-c?
MOTS-c is not an FDA-approved drug. SpartaLabs sells MOTS-c strictly as a research chemical for laboratory and analytical use. Read the MOTS-c discovery and regulatory history.
How Is MOTS-c Shipped to Los Angeles, CA, Charleston, SC and Nationwide?
