Analysis of wheat mitochondrially encoded polypeptides by in organello labelling
1999
Combettes, B. | Grienenberger, J.M.
The in organello labeling pattern in wheat (Triticum aestivum) mitochondria isolated from imbibed embryos were compared with those from the commonly used starting material, etiolated seedlings. Mitochondria from imbibed embryos proved to be metabolically more active than those from etiolated seedlings and produced a large number of strongly in organello-labeled polypeptides. Immunoprecipitation of the labeled proteins enabled the identification of mitochondrially encoded subunits of the respiratory chain complex I, some of which could not be detected by conventional Western blotting due to their high hydrophobicity. A method for mass isolation of wheat embryos is also presented which allows easy preparation of large amounts of intact and highly active mitochondria suitable for biochemical studies.
