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.

Features and Benefits

• The kit′s features include speed, sensitivity, ease of use, and specificity
• The kit contains all the reagents required for a fast and easy yeast cell wall lysis by lyticase (spheroplast formation) followed by cell membrane lysis/breakage and mitochondria isolation
• The kit provides two alternatives for cell membrane disruption. The first one by a detergent and second one by homogenization.
• The kit includes an extraction buffer for mitochondrial protein profiling to be used in proteome studies
• The kit includes a storage buffer for use with intact mitochondria.
• The reagents are sufficient for 40 procedures using 20 OD culture preparations
• The kit was tested on Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Pichia pastoris, and Schizosaccharomyces pombe

Mitochondria are essential organelles because of their function in energy conservation. Here, we show an involvement of mitochondria in phytochrome-dependent light sensing in fungi. Phytochrome photoreceptors are found in plants, bacteria, and fungi and contain a linear, heme-derived tetrapyrrole as

Previous work has explored link between mitochondrial biology and fungal pathogenicity in F1Fo-ATP synthase in Candida albicans. In this work we have detailed the more specific roles of the F1Fo-ATP synthase β subunit, a key protein subunit of F1Fo-ATP synthase.

Oxidative stress is mediated, in part, by reactive oxygen species produced by multiple cellular processes and controlled by cellular antioxidant mechanisms such as enzymatic scavengers or antioxidant modulators. Free radicals, such as reactive oxygen species, cause cellular damage via cellular.
