Description
SS-31 (elamipretide) is a synthetic mitochondria-targeted tetrapeptide research compound. It is supplied as a high-purity lyophilized powder for laboratory use only.
The compound is typically described as D-Arg-Dmt-Lys-Phe-NH₂ (Dmt = 2,6-dimethyltyrosine). Reported specifications commonly include a molecular weight of approximately 639 g/mol. Identity and purity are confirmed by HPLC and mass spectrometry.
In laboratory and preclinical research, SS-31 has been investigated for effects on mitochondrial membranes and bioenergetics, including studies related to cardiolipin interaction, oxidative-stress models, and electron-transport pathways in experimental systems. These findings are limited to research settings and do not establish approved medical use.
