SS-31
Mitochondria-targeting tetrapeptide
10 mg
SS-31 is a synthetic tetrapeptide in the Szeto-Schiller peptide family. It interacts with cardiolipin, a lipid concentrated in the inner mitochondrial membrane, where cells carry out much of their energy production.
Experiments using isolated mitochondria and model membranes have examined how SS-31 affects the interaction between cardiolipin and cytochrome c, a protein involved in electron transport. This work focuses on mitochondrial respiration, ATP synthesis and membrane function. The peptide's alternating aromatic and positively charged residues are part of its distinctive structure.
