Overview
SS-31 (also known as Elamipretide or MTP-131) is a cell-permeable tetrapeptide that selectively localises to the inner mitochondrial membrane, where it interacts with cardiolipin — a phospholipid critical to mitochondrial structure and electron transport chain function. This selective mitochondrial targeting has made SS-31 one of the most studied compounds in mitochondrial biology and cellular bioenergetics research.
SS-31 10mg is planned for the Indonesia catalogue. Register for availability updates.
Key Research Areas
Cardiolipin Interaction Studies
SS-31's selective binding to cardiolipin at the inner mitochondrial membrane makes it a unique research tool for studying membrane integrity, cristae morphology, and electron transport chain efficiency.
Mitochondrial ROS Research
Investigated for its effects on mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in cell models under oxidative stress conditions.
Cellular Bioenergetics
Used in studies of mitochondrial ATP production, respiratory chain complex activity, and cellular energy balance under various experimental conditions.
Ischaemia-Reperfusion Models
SS-31 is frequently used in cell-based ischaemia-reperfusion injury models due to its mitochondrial protective properties of research interest.
