Sample Preparation:

Sampleprep ID:SP003324
Sampleprep Summary:UQRQ isolation from tissues: Tissues were flash frozen in liquid nitrogen and powderized using a mortar and pestle. Approximately 10 mg of tissue powder was transferred into an Eppendorf tube. The tissue powder was re-suspended in 500 µL of 99.9% LCMS-grade methanol (Fisher) 0.1% HCl and then vortexed for 15 minutes at 4°C. 500 µL LCMS-grade hexane (Honeywell) was added to the lysate and again vortexed for 15 minutes at 4°C. Samples were then centrifuged at 16,000 x g for 10 minutes at 4°C with the top (hexane) layer containing UQ and RQ, the middle layer containing the acidified methanol, and the bottom layer containing the protein. The top layer was transferred into a new Eppendorf tube, dried down in a Refrigerated CentriVap Benchtop Vacuum Concentrator connected to a CentriVap-105 Cold Trap (Labconco), and stored at -80°C until they were re-suspended for LC-MS analysis. The acidified methanol layer was discarded, and the bottom protein layer was saved for protein quantification. The protein layer from the metabolite isolation was re-suspended in 1 mL of RIPA buffer (150 mM NaCl, 50 mM Tris HCl pH 7.5, 0.1% SDS, 1% Triton-X 100 (Sigma), 0.5% deoxycholate (Sigma), cOmplete EDTA-free protease inhibitor (Sigma)). The samples were vortexed for 10 minutes at 4°C and then centrifuged at 16,000 x g for 10 minutes at 4°C. Protein concentrations for each sample were calculated using the Pierce BCA Protein Assay Kit (Life Technologies). The protein concentrations were used to calculate the re-suspension volume to normalize all samples for LC-MS analysis to equal (20 µg/µL ) concentration. Isolation of mitochondria from tissues: Purified mitochondria pellets were subsequently vortexed in 500 µL of 99.9% LCMS-grade methanol (Fisher) 0.1% HCl for 10 minutes at 4°C. 500 µL of 100% LCMS-grade hexane (Honeywell) was added to each tube and vortexed for an additional 10 minutes at 4°C. Samples were then centrifuged for 10 minutes at 21,300 x g at 4°C. The top (hexane) layer of the sample (containing UQ and RQ) was transferred to a new labeled 1.5 mL Eppendorf tube and dried in a Refrigerated CentriVap Benchtop Vacuum Concentrator connected to a CentriVap-105 Cold Trap (Labconco). Samples were stored in -80°C freezer prior to resuspension and running on LC-MS. The bottom layer was discarded and the pellet was saved for protein quantification. Protein was isolated as described above. Protein concentrations were calculated using the Pierce BCA Protein Assay Kit (Life Technologies). The protein concentrations were used to calculate the re-suspension volume to normalize all samples for LC-MS analysis to equal (20 µg/uL) concentration. Isolation of UQ/RQ from purified mitochondria: Purified mitochondria pellets were subsequently vortexed in 500 µL of 99.9% LCMS-grade methanol (Fisher) 0.1% HCl for 10 minutes at 4°C. 500 µL of 100% LCMS-grade hexane (Honeywell) was added to each tube and vortexed for an additional 10 minutes at 4°C. Samples were then centrifuged for 10 minutes at 21,300 x g at 4°C. The top (hexane) layer of the sample (containing UQ and RQ) was transferred to a new labeled 1.5 mL Eppendorf tube and dried in a Refrigerated CentriVap Benchtop Vacuum Concentrator connected to a CentriVap-105 Cold Trap (Labconco). Samples were stored in -80°C freezer prior to resuspension and running on LC-MS. The bottom layer was discarded and the pellet was saved for protein quantification. Protein was isolated as described above. Protein concentrations were calculated using the Pierce BCA Protein Assay Kit (Life Technologies). The protein concentrations were used to calculate the re-suspension volume to normalize all samples for LC-MS analysis to equal (20 µg/uL) concentration.
