Tissue‐specific isolation of Arabidopsis/plant mitochondria – IMTACT (isolation of mitochondria tagged in specific cell types)

Summary Plant cells contain numerous subcompartments with clearly delineated metabolic functions. Mitochondria represent a very small fraction of the total cell volume and yet are the site of respiration and thus crucial for cells throughout all developmental stages of a plant's life. As such, their isolation from the rest of the cellular components is a basic requirement for numerous biochemical and physiological experiments. Although...
