Supramolecular methods: the 8-hydroxypyrene-1,3,6-trisulfonic acid (HPTS) transport assay
نویسندگان
چکیده
The liposomal membrane transport assay, which uses 8-hydroxypyrene-1,3,6-trisulfonic acid to monitor the internal pH of vesicles (the HPTS assay), is a widely used technique for analysing activity anionophore-facilitated across phospholipid membrane. This paper describes stepwise conduct this detailing both perks and pitfalls using method determine an anionophore mechanism.

Proton Transfer in Perfluorosulfonic Acid Fuel Cell Membranes with Differing Pendant Chains and Equivalent Weights.
Proton transfer in the nanoscopic water channels of polyelectrolyte fuel cell membranes was studied using a photoacid, 8-hydroxypyrene-1,3,6-trisulfonic acid sodium salt (HPTS), in the channels. The local environment of the probe was determined using 8-methoxypyrene-1,3,6-trisulfonic acid sodium salt (MPTS), which is not a photoacid. Three fully hydrated membranes, Nafion (DuPont) and two 3M me...
متن کاملpH-dependent Perforation of Macrophage Phagosomes by Listeriolysin O from Listeria monocytogenes
The pore-forming toxin listeriolysin O (LLO) is a major virulence factor implicated in escape of Listeria monocytogenes from phagocytic vacuoles. Here we describe the pH-dependence of vacuolar perforation by LLO, using the membrane-impermeant fluorophore 8-hydroxypyrene-1,3,6-trisulfonic acid (HPTS) to monitor the pH and integrity of vacuoles in mouse bone marrow-derived macrophages. Perforatio...
متن کاملCharge redistribution and photoacidity: neutral versus cationic photoacids.
A series of pyrene photoacids is used to investigate excited-state proton transfer with time-dependent pump-probe spectroscopy. The deprotonation dynamics of a cationic photoacid, 8-aminopyrene-1,3,6-trisulfonic acid trisodium salt (APTS), shows single exponential dynamics( approximately 30 ps) in water. This is in contrast to what is observed for the neutral photoacids 8-hydroxypyrene-1,3,6-tr...
متن کاملRapid apoplastic pH measurement in Arabidopsis leaves using a fluorescent dye
In plants, the extracellular space (apoplast) is one of the main places where exchange of molecules occurs between cells. Not only is this compartment involved in the storage of multiple metabolites and ions, including calcium and protons, but it also plays a role in the transmission of signaling molecules for cell-to-cell communication. It has recently been shown multiple times that these two ...
متن کاملCoherent intermolecular proton transfer in the acid-base reaction of excited state pyranine.
Detailed molecular dynamics simulations of an acid-base reaction have been the subject of extensive investigations. Here we report the excited state proton transfer dynamics of pyranine (8-hydroxypyrene-1,3,6-trisulfonic acid, HPTS) in acetate buffer by time-resolved fluorescence (TF) and quantum mechanical/effective fragment potential molecular dynamics (QM/EFP-MD) simulations. High time resol...
