SUIT-026 O2 mt D063

Description

Abbreviation: RET (Respiratory control)

Reference: A - SUIT-026

SUIT number: D064_1S;2Rot;3D;4Ama

O2k-Application: AmR

MitoPedia: SUIT - Protocol for the respiratory control of SUIT-026 AmR mt D064

SUIT protocol pattern: 1S;2Rot;3D;4Ama

SUIT-026 O2 mt D063 has been designed to serve as a respiratory control of the SUIT-026 AmR mt D064 study the RET production of ROS in isolated mitochondria. The protocol is focused on LEAK state for the S-pathway to provide the conditions of high membrane potential, redox power in the Q-junction and no presence of reduced NADH. Under these conditions, in several samples has been described that a reverse flow of the electrons into the membrane arm and the quinone binding site of the Complex I occurs, promoting the production of ROS. The addition of rotenone provides excellent control to this mechanism because this compound blocks the point on which the electrons leak from the Complex I. The last step, the titration of ADP at saturating concentrations to reach OXPHOS, allow us to harmonize this protocol with SUIT-006 O2 mt D022 for quality control and a full assessment of the coupling control.

Steps and respiratory states

Step	State	Pathway	Q-junction	Comment - Events (E) and Marks (M)
1S	S_L(n)	S	CII	1S Succinate, S ( type S-pathway to Q). Non-phosphorylating resting state (LEAK state); LEAK respiration L(n) in the absence of ADP, ATP, AMP (no adenylates).
2Rot	S_L(n)	S	CII	1S;2Rot Succinate, S ( type S-pathway to Q). Non-phosphorylating resting state (LEAK state); LEAK respiration L(n) in the absence of ADP, ATP, AMP (no adenylates). Succinate pathway control state (S-pathway) after inhibiting CI with rotenone, which also inhibits the F-pathway.
3D	S_P	S	CII	1S;2Rot;3D Succinate, S ( type S-pathway to Q). OXPHOS capacity P (with saturating [ADP]), active OXPHOS state.
3c	S_P	S	CII	1S;2Rot;3D;3c Addition of cytochrome c yields a test for integrity of the mtOM (cytochrome c control efficiency). Stimulation by added cytochrome c would indicate an injury of the mtOM and limitation of respiration in the preceding state without added c due to loss of cytochrome c. Typically, cytochrome c is added immediately after the earliest ADP-activation step (OXPHOS capacity P with saturating [ADP]). Succinate, S ( type S-pathway to Q). OXPHOS capacity P (with saturating [ADP]), active OXPHOS state.
4Ama	ROX			1S;2Rot;3D;3c;4Ama Rox is the residual oxygen consumption in the ROX state, due to oxidative side reactions, estimated after addition of antimycin A (inhibitor of CIII). Rox is subtracted from oxygen flux as a baseline for all respiratory states, to obtain mitochondrial respiration (mt).

Strengths and limitations

The conditions under RET is observable in isolated mitochondria are not physiological but it has been suggested that corresponds to some pathological states.

- The protocol does not allow to obtain all the coupling states of the sample.

+ Short protocol.

+ Rotenone provides an excellent control step for RET.
