Intracellular signaling

  • Change of gene expression

  • Adaptation to stress
  • Apoptosis

Biosynthetic function

  • Long chain fatty acids
  • Branched chain amino acids
  • Nucleotide biosynthesis

ATP synthesis is not the only role of mitochondria in a cell

Monitoring of mitochondria function is important to understand progression of these pathologies

Mitochondrial dysfunction is involved in many processes

MMP dysregulation is implicated in :

  • Aging
  • Alzheimer disease
  • Parkinson’s disease
  • Diabetes mellitus 2 type
  • Cardiomyopathy
  • Ischemia

Figure is adapted from Cell (2013) 153, 1194-1217

Mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) is one of the key parameters that characterizes function of mitochondria

MMP DEPENDENT ACCUMULATION MMP DEPENDENT RATE OF LUCIFERIN RELEASE How to make luciferin uncaging MMP dependent?

  • 1. Take two reagents that release luciferin upon reaction
  • 2. Target them to mitochondria
