MOTS-C is a 16 amino acid mitochondrial-derived peptide encoded within the 12S rRNA gene of the mitochondrial genome. Unlike nuclear-encoded peptides, MOTS-C is expressed directly from mitochondrial DNA, positioning it as a key subject in mitochondrial-nuclear communication research. Research has investigated MOTS-C's role in AMPK pathway activation, insulin sensitivity modelling, and metabolic homeostasis. In-vitro and preclinical studies have examined its capacity to regulate glucose utilisation via the folate cycle and purine biosynthesis pathways, independent of canonical insulin signalling. Further research has explored its activity as an exercise-responsive peptide, with expression observed to increase in skeletal muscle and plasma under physical stress conditions. MOTS-C has also been studied in the context of cellular ageing, with research suggesting involvement in stress resistance and mitochondrial biogenesis regulation. Supplied as a lyophilised white powder. Supplied strictly for in-vitro laboratory research. Not for human or veterinary consumption.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is MOTS-C legal to buy in Australia?
MOTS-C is supplied strictly as a research chemical for in-vitro laboratory use. It is not approved for human therapeutic use in Australia and is not for human or animal consumption. Researchers are responsible for compliance with Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) regulations and their institution's protocols.
Is MOTS-C third-party tested?
Yes. MOTS-C is independently verified by Ozcanium Analytics, an independent Australian laboratory, at 98.59% purity by UPLC-MS/MS, analysed 29 August 2026 on lot APL-MOTS10-2608-01, net content 9.80 mg, verification code OZ-HPLCMS-TS08; bacterial endotoxin below 15.0 EU per vial by kinetic chromogenic LAL, analysed 30 August 2026, verification code OZ-ENDOTX-TAU5. The reports are published in full on this page, and each verification code can be redeemed in the laboratory's own portal, so the document is confirmed against their records rather than ours. Every batch is also analysed in-house by HPLC and mass spectrometry and ships with a batch-specific Certificate of Analysis.
What purity is MOTS-C?
MOTS-C is independently verified by Ozcanium Analytics at 98.59% purity by UPLC-MS/MS, analysed 29 August 2026. We specify ≥98% purity — the High-Tier Research Grade (commercial RUO) standard — and every batch is also analysed in-house by HPLC and mass spectrometry and ships with a batch-specific Certificate of Analysis.
Does MOTS-C ship with a Certificate of Analysis (COA)?
Yes — every batch ships with a batch-specific COA documenting HPLC purity and mass-spectrometry identity. 5 MOTS-C batch certificates are published in full at australianpeptidelabs.com.au/certificates/mots-c, so the analysis can be read before ordering and the batch number printed on the vial matched against it.
Where can I buy MOTS-C in Australia?
MOTS-C can be ordered here from Australian Peptide Labs for in-vitro research use, dispatched same day from within Australia with a COA included.
Do you provide dosing or administration guidance for MOTS-C?
No. As these compounds are supplied for laboratory research only, we do not provide dosing or administration protocols. Our research library covers reconstitution and concentration calculations for in-vitro work.
