Dechorinated embryos were weighted before hypoxia or cyanide treatments and were snap-frozen immediately in liquid nitrogen at the end of the treatments. After adding 250 µl of 6% perchloric acid per 20–40 mg embryos, embryos were homogenized and incubated on the ice for 10 min. After 10 min of spin-down at 12,000 g at 4°C, supernatant was neutralized to pH 7 by adding 44 µl 2M K2CO3, incubated for 30 min on ice, and centrifuged at 12,000 g for 10 min at 4°C. Supernatant was filtered using a 0.45-µm spin filter by 12,000 g for 5 min at 4°C and stored at −80°C until HPLC injection. Concentrations of ATP, ADP, and AMP were measured by HPLC according to established methods (Celotto et al., 2011 (link)). HPLC separation of adenylate nucleotides was performed on 20 µl of extract using a gradient-mobile phase on a Waters XBridge Shield RP18 column and the following conditions: flow rate of 0.8 µl/min, detection wavelength of 257 nm, and column temperature of 30°C. The gradient consisted of 100% Buffer A from 0 to 6.5 min, 100% Buffer B from 6.5 to 12.5 min, and 100% Buffer A from 12.5 to 25 min. Buffer A was 50 mM NH4H2PO4, pH 5.7; Buffer B was 60:40 acetonitrile/H2O. Adenylate standards were linear through the range of 100–250 µM. Retention times were ∼4.2, 4.7, and 6.2 min for ATP, ADP, and AMP, respectively.

Peptide Hydrophobicity Determination by RP-HPLC

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To determine peptide hydrophobicity, the RP-HPLC system was used. The equipment used was Waters Alliance e2695 system with a Waters 2998 PDA Detector (software-Empower®3). All analyses were carried out on a Waters X-Bridge Shield RP-18 column (4.6 × 150 mm, 3.5 µm particle size, 130 Å pore size) and each peptide sample was analyzed in triplicate. UV detection at 214 nm was used, and samples (10 µL) were eluted with a linear 20–50% acetonitrile gradient in deionized water over 30 min at 25.0 ± 0.1 °C (gradient 1% of ACN/min). The mobile phase flow rate was 0.5 mL/min. Both eluents contained 0.1% (v/v) of TFA. The peptides were dissolved in water (0.1% TFA, v/v) to obtain a concentration of 1 mg/mL. The hydrophobicity was expressed as acetonitrile content in the mobile phase at a retention time of a peptide (tR). The dead time (t0) was determined by injecting water and measuring the elution time of negative peaks. To calculate hydrophobicity, Eq. (2) was used. Y%ACN=1%ACNmin(tR-t0)+20%ACN, where Y %ACN is the acetonitrile content [%] at the peak maximum; tR is the retention time [min]; t0 is the dead time [min]; 1% ACN/min is the organic phase gradient; 20% ACN is the content of organic solvent at the beginning of method.

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.
