Template:SUIT text D085

SUIT-006 MgG ce-pce D085 is a protocol to investigate the O₂ flux and mitochondrial ATP production using the fluorescent dye Magnesium Green. In this protocol, the NADH Electron transfer-pathway state can be analyzed in permeabilized cells (permeabilized wby digitonin titration into the chamber). Addition of the substrates pyruvate & malate (PM) to the mitochondrial preparation leads to LEAK state, and further addition of ADP induces the OXPHOS state, in which respiration is coupled to ATP production. After ADP addition, the signal from MgG gradually decreases, reflecting the ANT-mediated exchange of ADP for ATP, the later one having higher affinity for Mg²⁺. This exchange is stopped by addition of the ANT inhibitor carboxyatractyloside (Cat), which leads to LEAK state. With the addition of uncoupler, the Electron transfer pathway state can also be assessed in this protocol.

SUIT-006 MgG ce-pce D085 protocol in DatLab 8 will be provided for N(PM) pathway. For using this protocol with other substrate/inhibitor combinations (e.g. succinate and rotenone for Succinate pathway control state or PMS for NS-pathway control state), a personalized DLPU can be created.
