Description
SS-31 (Elamipretide) is a synthetic, mitochondria-targeting tetrapeptide (D-Arg-2′,6′-Dmt-Lys-Phe-NH2). In biochemical research, it is highly regarded for its unique ability to penetrate cell membranes and transiently bind to cardiolipin within the inner mitochondrial membrane. It is a primary subject in laboratory studies exploring mitochondrial bioenergetics, electron transport chain stability, and cellular signaling pathways related to oxidative metabolism.
