SS-31 Research Compound (2S)

"Premium grade SS-31 validation."

SS-31 (Elamipretide) is a Szeto-Schiller mitochondria-targeted tetrapeptide with the sequence D-Arg-Dmt-Lys-Phe-NH2 (Dmt = 2,6-dimethyltyrosine). It binds cardiolipin at the inner mitochondrial membrane and has been characterized in bioenergetics research for its effects on mitochondrial membrane surface electrostatics and calcium handling (Mitchell et al., J Biol Chem 2020, PMC7247319; Szeto, Protein Pept Lett 2018, PMID 30381054). SS-31 research peptide is supplied lyophilized at ≥99% purity verified by HPLC, with identity confirmed by mass spectrometry and a batch-specific Certificate of Analysis (COA) included. Store lyophilized powder at −20 °C, protected from light and moisture. For laboratory research use only — not for human or animal consumption.
