Description

General description

Mitochondria, the site of most of the energy production in eukaryotic cells, are characterized by a double membrane structure, an outer membrane and folded inner membrane. Isolated mitochondria may be used as tools for in vitro studies such as respiration and energy production studies, apoptosis, mtDNA and mtRNA, and mitochondrial protein profiling.

Application

The kit contains all the reagents required for yeast cell wall lysis by lyticase (spheroplast formation) followed by cell membrane lysis/breakage and mitochondria isolation. In addition, the kit includes an extraction buffer for mitochondrial protein profiling to be used in proteome studies and a storage buffer for use with intact mitochondria. Yeast Mitochondria Isolation Kit has been used in the isolation and extraction of mitochondria.
