How it works
SS-31 (elamipretide) is a mitochondria-targeting peptide that binds cardiolipin, a lipid in the inner mitochondrial membrane. In research it has been reported to stabilize mitochondrial structure, improve cellular energy (ATP) production, and reduce oxidative stress in study models.
For laboratory and research use only — not for human or veterinary consumption.
SS-31 (Elamipretide) — Lyophilized Powder | For Research Use Only
SS-31 is a synthetic mitochondria-targeted tetrapeptide supplied as a research-grade reference compound for in vitro and preclinical laboratory study.
Compound profile
A member of the Szeto-Schiller class of cell-permeable, mitochondria-localizing peptides that selectively associate with the inner mitochondrial membrane. Used in laboratory research models examining cardiolipin interactions, mitochondrial bioenergetics, and oxidative-stress assays.
