What Makes SS-31 a Unique Research Compound
SS-31 belongs to a class of small, cell-permeable peptides designed to localise to mitochondria — specifically to associate with cardiolipin, a lipid concentrated in the inner mitochondrial membrane. That targeting is what distinguishes it from broadly acting metabolic tools.
In the research literature, SS-31 is examined for its influence on mitochondrial membrane integrity and bioenergetic efficiency, with cardiolipin interaction central to the proposed mechanism. Researchers value its specificity for the organelle.
Compared with mitochondrial-derived peptides like MOTS-c, SS-31's research emphasis is structural — the membrane itself — rather than signalling, which is why the two are often studied together to address complementary mitochondrial questions in Canadian research.
Research Benefits
- Mitochondrial Membrane Research — SS-31 is studied for its association with cardiolipin and inner-membrane integrity in models.
- Bioenergetics — The literature examines its relationship to mitochondrial energy-production efficiency.
- Oxidative-Stress Research — Research investigates its role in models of mitochondrial oxidative stress.
- Comparative Mitochondrial Studies — It is used alongside MOTS-c as a structural-focus tool.

Frequently Asked Questions
Where can I buy SS-31 in Canada for research?
SS-31 is supplied to Canadian research buyers as a lyophilized, research-grade peptide, HPLC-verified to ≥99% with MS-confirmed identity and a batch-specific COA.
How is SS-31 different from MOTS-c?
SS-31 is a synthetic peptide studied for targeting and stabilising the inner mitochondrial membrane via cardiolipin, whereas MOTS-c is a mitochondrial-derived peptide studied through AMPK and metabolic signalling.
Is SS-31 naturally occurring?
No. It is a synthetic, mitochondria-targeting tetrapeptide developed for research.
How are purity and identity verified?
Each batch is HPLC-verified (≥99%) and MS-confirmed, with a batch-specific COA. Material is lyophilized and stored at 2–8 °C, protected from light.
