Overview
SS-31 (Elamipretide) is a synthetic mitochondria-targeting tetrapeptide developed from the Szeto-Schiller class of aromatic-cationic peptides, designed as a research model for investigating mitochondrial biology, cardiolipin interactions and intracellular energy systems.
Unlike many peptides that interact primarily with cell-surface receptors, SS-31 was engineered to preferentially localise within mitochondria, providing researchers with a unique model for exploring mitochondrial membrane biology, cellular bioenergetics and organelle-targeted peptide design.
AMINOSPX supplies SS-31 exclusively for legitimate laboratory, analytical, scientific and in vitro research purposes.
