It binds to cardiolipin, a unique mitochondrial phospholipid, stabilizing mitochondrial structure and function. SS-31 has been extensively studied for its role in protecting mitochondrial function under conditions of oxidative stress, ischemia-reperfusion injury, and aging-related mitochondrial dysfunction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eResearch Applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMitochondrial function and membrane stability research\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIschemia-reperfusion injury models\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCardiolipin stabilization and mitochondrial structure studies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOxidative stress protection research\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAging-related mitochondrial dysfunction studies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuality Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePurity: ≥98% (HPLC verified)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompound: SS-31 (Elamipretide)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMolecular Weight: 1639.9 Da\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eForm: Lyophilized powder\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStorage: -20°C, protect from light\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCOA: Batch-specific, ISO-accredited laboratory\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: How does SS-31 target mitochondria?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: SS-31 is a Szeto-Schiller (SS) peptide with alternating aromatic and basic residues that make it cell-permeable and cause accumulation in mitochondria based on membrane potential (~150-180 mV negative inside).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: What is cardiolipin and why does it matter?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Cardiolipin is a unique phospholipid found only in mitochondrial inner membranes, essential for oxidative phosphorylation and cristae structure.
