Figure Lengend Snippet: (A) Schematic representing hypothesis that cellular lysis disrupts mitochondrial membrane integrity whereas with use of mitochondrial isolation it is preserved. (B) Western blot image of MPC1 in the soluble fraction between the temperatures 37 and 66°C in control versus UK5099 treated samples. (C) The samples were fitted to the Boltzmann Sigmoid curve, and no significant difference was observed in the MPC1 melting temperature between control and UK5099-treated conditions (n = 1-2, N = 3, extra sum of square F test, p = 0.7611). Blot images are representative of means obtained from independent replicates.
Article Snippet: The membrane was blocked in 2% BSA for two days before being probed with 1:500 MPC1 antibody (Cell Signaling Ref 14462) [ ], 1:2000 MPC2 antibody (Cell Signaling Ref 46141) [ ], 1:2000 Porin VDAC antibody (Calbio Ref 529534), or 1:2000 ß-actin antibody (Cell Signaling Ref 3700) overnight.
