Abstract

Because deoxyribonucleoside triphosphates (dNTPs) are the critical substrates for DNA replication and repair, dNTP pools have been studied in context of multiple basic biochemical processes. Over the last 12 years, interest in dNTPs, and specifically the mitochondrial dNTP pools, has expanded to biomedical science because several mitochondrial diseases have been found to be caused by dysfunctions of several enzymes involved in dNTP catabolism or anabolism. Techniques to reliably measure mitochondrial dNTPs should be sensitive and specific to avoid interference caused by the abundant ribonucleotides. Here, we describe detailed protocols to measure mitochondrial dNTPs from two specific samples, cultured skin fibroblasts and mouse liver. The methods can be easily adapted to other types of samples. The protocol follows a polymerase-based method, which is the most widely used approach to measure dNTP pools. Our description is based on the latest update of the technique, which minimizes the potential interference from ribonucleotides.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 05 January 2012.
All research outputs
#20,153,989
of 22,661,413 outputs
Outputs from Methods in molecular biology
#9,799
of 13,020 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#221,135
of 244,044 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Methods in molecular biology
#423
of 473 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,661,413 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 13,020 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.3. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 244,044 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 473 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
