Method for Detecting Mitochondrial ATP by Hybridization Chain Reaction
摘要
Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) plays a central role in energy transduction and signaling in living cells. For mitochondrial ATP detection, the appropriate probes should include the abilities to enter target cells noninvasively, target mitochondria, and then respond to the ATP reliably. Here, we provide a detailed protocol for imaging mitochondrial ATP in living cells exploiting the hybridization chain reaction (HCR).
