Description

SS-31 (Elamipretide) is a small, cell-permeable tetrapeptide that selectively targets the inner mitochondrial membrane. It is widely studied in mitochondrial-dysfunction research.

Cardiolipin-selective binding

Targets inner mitochondrial membrane

Studied in bioenergetics research

Mechanism of Action

SS-31 binds cardiolipin on the inner mitochondrial membrane, and is proposed to stabilise the electron-transport chain, reduce reactive oxygen species production and improve ATP synthesis efficiency.

Research Applications

Mitochondrial Function Research
Ageing & Longevity Studies
Ischaemia-Reperfusion Models
Cardiac & Skeletal Muscle Research
