What is MOTS-C?
MOTS-C (Mitochondrial Open reading frame of the twelve S rRNA-c) is a mitochondrial-derived peptide (MDP) encoded within the 12S rRNA gene of mitochondrial DNA. It is studied for its role in regulating cellular energy metabolism and homeostasis.

Mechanism of action
MOTS-C acts as a metabolic regulator. Research indicates it translocates to the nucleus in response to metabolic stress, where it interacts with regulatory sequences to modulate gene expression related to energy metabolism. It is also studied in the context of mitochondria-to-nucleus signalling.
