For the determination of the ATP content and ATPase activity, mitochondria were isolated using a yeast mitochondria isolation kit (Biovision, San Francisco, CA, USA), and the content of protein was determined using a BCA protein assay kit (Solarbio, Beijing, China). Then, the ATP content and ATPase activity of the mitochondria were determined using an ATP Colorimetric/Fluorometric assay kit and an ATPase/GTPase activity assay kit, respectively. All operations were performed according to the manufacturer’s instruction, and each experiment was performed at least three times.

Isolation and Analysis of Yeast Mitochondria

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Mitochondria were isolated using the Yeast Mitochondria Isolation Kit (Bio Vision) according to the manufacturer's specifications. For this purpose, sod1∆ cells expressing an empty vector (pRS415), SOD1 (pRS415-SOD1) or IMS localized SCO2-SOD1 (pRS415-SCO2-SOD1) were grown in 20 mL, SC-2% glucose cultures to a density of OD600 nm = 1.0. 4 × 108 cells of each strain were harvested and washed in ice-cold ultra pure water prior to fractionation. After fractionation, volumes corresponding to 2.5% of the whole cell extract and cytosolic fractions, and 10% of the mitochondrial fraction were assessed for Pgk1, Sod1, and Porin expression by SDS-PAGE and immunoblotting. Pgk1 and Sod1 were probed with anti-PGK1 (1:1000) and anti-SOD1 (1:5000) polyclonal antibodies and detected using a goat anti-rabbit secondary antibody conjugated to a 680 nm emitting fluorophore (Biotium). Porin was probed with an anti-Porin (1:5000) monoclonal antibody and detected using a goat anti-mouse secondary antibody conjugated to a 797 nm emitting fluorophore (Thermo Fisher).

Isolation and Purification of Yeast Mitochondria

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Mitochondria were isolated from yeast cells by the yeast mitochondria isolation kit (BioVision, CA) according to the manufacturer's instructions. Although the resulting samples are enriched in mitochondria, they may contain other organelles such as the endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi complex, and vacuoles. To obtain pure mitochondria, this crude mitochondrial fraction was subjected to further fractionation as described [33 ]. Briefly, a sucrose gradient was constructed by multiple layers extending from 60% sucrose to 15% sucrose in EM buffer (10 mM MOPS/KOH (pH 7.2), 1 mM EDTA) in a Beckman Ultra-Clear centrifuge tube (Beckman Coulter Life Sciences). Three ml of the crude mitochondrial fraction in SEM buffer (10 mM MOPS/KOH, pH 7.2, 250 mM sucrose, and 1 mM EDTA) was placed on the top of 15% (w/v) sucrose and centrifuged in a Beckman SW44 Ti swinging-bucket rotor for 1 h at 134,000g at 4°C. The intact mitochondria were obtained from a brown band at the 60%/32% sucrose interface, and purified mitochondria were used for sphingolipid analyses, mitochondrial membrane potential assays, and mitochondrial fusion assays.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
