SUIT-032 O2 mt D109

Description

Reference: A: protocol for simultaneous determination of O₂ flux and NADH autofluorescence in mitochondrial preparations (isolated mitochondria, tissue homogenate and permeabilized cells)- SUIT-006

SUIT number: D109_mt;1PGM;2D;3Myx.png

O2k-Application: NADH

The coupling-control protocol SUIT-032 O2 mt D109 is used as a control protocol for SUIT-032 NADH mt D078, allowing for cytochrome c test and the evaluation of mitochondrial respiration in two coupling control states: LEAK, and OXPHOS in the N-pathway

After the addition of mitochondria in the absence of fuel substrates and ADP, Ren, respiration due to oxidation of endogenous substrates remaining after mitochondrial isolation is measured.

The addition of the complex III inhibitor myxothiazol allows the measurement of Rox.

Steps and respiratory states

Step	State	Pathway	Q-junction	Comment - Events (E) and Marks (M)
mt	REN			mt Respiration in the REN state is due to the presence of residual endogenous substrates.
1PGM	PGML(n)	N	CI	1PGM NADH-linked substrates (type N-pathway to Q). Non-phosphorylating resting state (LEAK state); LEAK respiration L(n) in the absence of ADP, ATP, AMP (no adenylates).
2D	PGMP	N	CI	1PGM;2D NADH-linked substrates (type N-pathway to Q). OXPHOS capacity P (with saturating [ADP]), active OXPHOS state.
3Myx	ROX			1PGM;2D;3Myx Rox is the residual oxygen consumption in the ROX state, due to oxidative side reactions, estimated after addition of myxothiazol (inhibitor of CIII). Rox is subtracted from oxygen flux as a baseline for all respiratory states, to obtain mitochondrial respiration (mt).

Strengths and limitations

• Control protocol of SUIT-032 NADH mt D078 for respiration only, allowing for cytochrome c test.

+ Reasonable duration of the experiment.

- Careful washing is required after the experiment to avoid carry-over of inhibitors. The addition of liver homogenate is recommended in the washing protocol to bind strong inhibitors.

- Omy concentration has to be determined if used. Higher concentrations of Omy may inhibit the ET state.

• After myxothyazol titration, this protocol can be extended with the Complex IV assay.

Compare SUIT protocols

• SUIT-006 NADH mt D084: Protocol for simultaneous determination of O2 flux and NADH autofluorescence in isolated mitochondria. Similar protocol with uncoupler titrations and ET state evaluation.
• SUIT-033 NADH mt D081: Protocol for simultaneous determination of O₂ flux and NADH autofluorescence in isolated mitochondria, allowing for calibration of the NAD redox ratios with samples that contain residual endogenous substrates. Additional titration of low concentration of ADP (0.1 μM) for depletion of endogenous substrates and calibration of fully reduced NAD, allowing for cross-calibration with SUIT-032 NADH mt D078.
• SUIT-032 NADH mt D078: Similiar protocol with the possibility to perform simultaneous determination of O2 flux and NADH autofluorescence in isolated mitochondria.
