What it is, stated plainly.

What it is

A 16-amino-acid peptide encoded within the mitochondrial 12S rRNA gene — one of a small set of peptides transcribed from mitochondrial rather than nuclear DNA. Published mechanism work concerns AMPK signalling and the peptide's translocation to the nucleus under metabolic stress. It sits in the mitochondrial-signalling literature.

How a lot is verified

Purity assayed by third-party HPLC and net content (mg per vial) measured by the lab, with a certificate of analysis published where a report exists.

Handling & storage

Supplied as a lyophilized powder. Store at −20°C, desiccated and protected from light. Handled per the receiving laboratory's procedures. Not for human consumption.
