|---|---|
15 Citations | The C-terminal flanking peptide may have an important function since it was well conserved and contained a region of 16 amino acids with only a single, conservative replacement. |
7 Citations | This C-terminal peptide contains three pairs of basic amino acids, suggesting that it may be the precursor of multiple processed peptides. |
36 Citations | Elucidation of the amino acid composition provided supporting evidence that the peptide was novel and was consistent with a full length peptide of approximately 30 amino acids. |
| We also show that the peptide staple can be shortened to 24 amino acids still permitting an irreversible combination of functional proteins. | |
| The first 29 amino acids are hydrophobic and may represent the transit peptide. | |
38 Citations | Peptides with two N-terminal basic amino acids are more stable than other peptides. |
37 Citations | Among the species studied, the five amino acids at the C-terminus of the peptide are totally conserved, suggesting that this region is of major importance. |
35 Citations | We show that the three amino acids on the C terminus of the peptide analogs bind too weakly to exert a functional effect themselves. |
| It is the first C-peptide shown to contain the amino acids histidine, tyrosine and phenylalanine. | |
102 Citations | The experiments of single β-amino acid incorporation into a peptide revealed that 13 β-amino acids are compatible with ribosomal translation. |

What does the peptide mots-c do?5 answersMOTS-c is a mitochondrial-derived peptide that has various physiological functions. It has been shown to regulate inflammation and sepsis-associated acute lung injury (ALI). MOTS-c also improves glucose metabolism in skeletal muscle, indicating its potential benefits for diseases such as diabetes, obesity, and aging. Additionally, MOTS-c has been found to prevent senescence-induced diabetes by targeting the pancreas. In the context of septic cardiomyopathy, MOTS-c treatment has been shown to reduce inflammation, oxidative stress, and cardiomyocyte apoptosis, while activating cardioprotection-related signaling pathways. Furthermore, MOTS-c activates the AICAR-AMPK signaling pathways and regulates the expression of genes involved in metabolic homeostasis, such as GLUT4, STAT3, and IL-10. Overall, MOTS-c has therapeutic potential in improving postoperative ALI, diabetes, septic cardiomyopathy, and metabolic disorders.
