The current work demonstrates the formation of complexes between the tetraanion adenosine-5'-triphosphate (ATP) and the flavone derivative 3-hydroxy-4'-(dimethylamino)flavone (FME). Two kinds of complexes are evidenced. The higher affinity ATP-FME complex corresponds to a stacking of the two aromatic molecules and leads to a strong hypochromicity of the absorption spectrum of the dye. The lower affinity (ATP)(2)-FME complex results in a strong increase of the fluorescence intensity ( approximately 20-fold), due mainly to the appearance of the anionic form of FME, as shown by the important red shift (60 nm) of both excitation and emission spectra. Molecular modeling indicates that this anionic form results from the deprotonation induced by the influence of the tetra-charged triphosphate group of the ATP molecules. Using its strong enhancement of fluorescence intensity in the presence of ATP, the dye was used successfully to monitor the succinate-induced production of endogenous ATP in mitochondria. As a consequence, FME can be considered as a starting point to design efficient ATP sensors.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008928 Mitochondria Semiautonomous, self-reproducing organelles that occur in the cytoplasm of all cells of most, but not all, eukaryotes. Each mitochondrion is surrounded by a double limiting membrane. The inner membrane is highly invaginated, and its projections are called cristae. Mitochondria are the sites of the reactions of oxidative phosphorylation, which result in the formation of ATP. They contain distinctive RIBOSOMES, transfer RNAs (RNA, TRANSFER); AMINO ACYL T RNA SYNTHETASES; and elongation and termination factors. Mitochondria depend upon genes within the nucleus of the cells in which they reside for many essential messenger RNAs (RNA, MESSENGER). Mitochondria are believed to have arisen from aerobic bacteria that established a symbiotic relationship with primitive protoeukaryotes.
