Molecular Profile

What is this compound?

SS-31, also known as elamipretide, is a synthetic aromatic-cationic tetrapeptide that selectively associates with cardiolipin on the inner mitochondrial membrane, and is supplied as a lyophilized powder for in vitro laboratory research use only. It is characterized in the peer-reviewed literature for its interaction with the mitochondrial protein landscape and is widely studied in research models of mitochondrial bioenergetics and cristae structure.

Research applications: Commonly used in mitochondrial bioenergetics studies, cardiolipin-interaction research, and cellular energy-metabolism research applications.
