You can buy MOTS-c from HEEZ Research, which stocks it in a single 10 mg lyophilized vial and ships from the USA. Everything HEEZ supplies is for in vitro laboratory research — not for human or veterinary use.
MOTS-c is a 16-amino-acid mitochondrial-derived peptide — its sequence is encoded within the 12S rRNA region of mitochondrial DNA rather than the nuclear genome. That origin is what places it in the mitochondrial-derived peptide class.
The coding sequence sits in mitochondrial DNA rather than nuclear DNA. MOTS-c is one of a small set of peptides catalogued that way, which is why the listing names the class explicitly.
MOTS-c from HEEZ Research is independently tested by an accredited third-party laboratory using HPLC for purity and mass spectrometry for identity. Every peptide we supply is over 99% pure. Certificates of Analysis are published on the product page as testing is completed — review the report before you order. A certificate records the identity, purity and quantity measured for the material supplied, so you can confirm what you received matches what was ordered.
Sealed lyophilized MOTS-c vials are stable at ambient temperature in transit and ship without cold packaging. On arrival, store the sealed vial per the storage conditions on its certificate of analysis.

About MOTS-c
What is MOTS-c peptide?
MOTS-c peptide is a 16-amino-acid peptide encoded within the mitochondrial 12S rRNA gene — a mitochondrial-derived peptide rather than a nuclear-encoded one — supplied by HEEZ Research as a synthetic lyophilized powder for in vitro laboratory use. The full sequence is MRWQEMGYIFYPRKLR.
How does MOTS-c work?
In vitro, MOTS-c is characterized in AMPK-pathway and folate-cycle assay systems; its mitochondrial origin is the feature that defines its research interest, and activity is measured in cell-based reporter assays.
How HEEZ tests MOTS-c
Solid-phase synthesis, reversed-phase purification, lyophilization. Independent analysis by HPLC for purity and mass spectrometry for identity; lot-specific certificate (/coa/mots-c-coa.webp).
