MOTS-C (Mitochondrial Open Reading Frame of the 12S rRNA-c) is a mitochondrial-derived peptide (MDP) that plays a critical role in regulating metabolism, insulin sensitivity, and cellular energy balance. Unlike most peptides encoded by nuclear DNA, MOTS-C is encoded by mitochondrial DNA, highlighting its unique role in cellular energy regulation and mitochondrial communication. MOTS-C has gained...Read More
