SS-31 25mg

Description

Overview A mitochondria-targeted tetrapeptide supplied as lyophilized powder in sealed vial format at 25mg. Supplied for controlled in vitro work by qualified laboratory personnel.

Research Background & Mechanistic Focus SS-31 belongs to the Szeto-Schiller class of small aromatic-cationic peptides, and its defining property is that it concentrates at the inner mitochondrial membrane without requiring a membrane potential to get there. Research focus centers on its association with cardiolipin, the signature phospholipid of the inner membrane, and on how that association affects cristae architecture and electron transport chain efficiency. Common laboratory contexts include isolated mitochondria respirometry, cardiolipin binding characterization, and reactive oxygen species measurement in cellular models. Its four-residue structure makes it unusually stable compared with longer peptides in this catalog.
