In eukaryotic cells, each organelle has a specific lipid composition, which defines its identity and regulates its biogenesis and function. For example, glycerolipids are present in all membranes, whereas sphingolipids and sterols are mostly enriched in the plasma membrane. In addition to phosphoglycerolipids, plants also contain galactoglycerolipids, a family of glycerolipids present mainly in chloroplasts and playing an important role in photosynthesis. During phosphate starvation, galactoglycerolipids are also found in large amounts in other organelles, illustrating the dynamic nature of membrane lipid composition. Thus, it is important to determine the lipid composition of each organelle, as analyses performed on total cells do not represent the specific changes occurring at the organelle level. This task requires the optimization of standard protocols to isolate organelles with high yield and low contamination by other cellular fractions. In this chapter, we describe a protocol to isolate mitochondria from Arabidopsis thaliana cell cultures to perform lipidomic analysis.
