SS-31 peptide, also known as Elamipretide in scientific literature, has emerged as a valuable investigative compound in mitochondrial and cellular research. This small, mitochondria-targeting peptide is recognized for its selective interaction with cardiolipin, a phospholipid unique to the inner mitochondrial membrane. Its distinct structure enables researchers to explore mechanisms related to mitochondrial stability, bioenergetics, and cellular resilience under various experimental conditions.
