MOTS-C is a short peptide encoded with the 12S ribosomal RNA gene of mitochondrial DNA. It was first characterized in 2015 by Changhan Lee, Pinchas Cohen, and colleagues at the University of Southern California, who showed that the peptide acts as a hormone-like signal regulating whole-body metabolism.
