General description

Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is the primary energy source for all cellular processes. ATP also functions as a signaling molecule for regulating cell movement, neurotransmission and ion channel functions. ATP is localized in mitochondria, where cellular respiration occurs. ATP levels can be used to measure cell proliferation and cell cycle dynamics.

The BioTracker ATP-Red dye is a live cell red fluorescent imaging probe for adenosine triphosphate (ATP). The probe targets ATP specifically in the mitochondria of living cells. The probe shows no cross reactivity to numerous analytes including: Zn2+, Mg2+, Ca2+, Na2+, K+, GSH, HOCL, H2O2, arabinose, galactose, glucose, fructose, ribose, sorbose, sucrose, xylose, heparin, AMP, ADP, CMP, CDP, CTP, UMP, UDP, UTP, GMP, GDP or GTP. The probe is non-fluorescent when forming a closed ring structure. In the presence of the negatively charged ATP, the covalent bonds between boron and ribose is broken and the ring opens producing fluorescence.

Questions

1–2 of 2 Questions  
  1. Can BioTracker ATP-Red Live Cell Dye be used with an uncoupler like FCCP/CCCP?  Mitochondrial localization of molecules is often related to the weak negative charge in the matrix that is negated by uncouplers which would affect conclusions.

    1 answer
    1. BioTracker ATP-Red Live Cell Dye is a fluorescent probe that increases emission upon binding ATP, with mitochondrial localization commonly observed due to ATP abundance. The product documentation does not explicitly confirm behavior with FCCP or CCCP. Uncouplers disrupt mitochondrial function and ATP levels, potentially affecting the probe signal; evaluation with FCCP/CCC P has not been performed for this product. Therefore, use should be interpreted cautiously. A literature reference describing similar ATP-targeting probes is Chang YT et al., Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. Engl. 2016;55(5):1773–1776.
