Figure 3. Membrane permeability of 8-Br-N1-cIDPR.

Figure 3

Jurkat T-cells were incubated with 3 mM 8-Br-N1-cIDPR for 5 min at room temperature. Cellular nucleotides were extracted with TCA. Crude cell extracts were purified by solid-phase extraction and analysed by RP-HPLC. (a) Representative RP-HPLC analysis of absorbed 8-Br-N1-cIDPR in Jurkat T-cells is shown (black line). (b) Magnification of the trace shown in (a). The peak of 8-Br-N1-cIDPR is indicated by an arrow. As a control, cell extracts of cells not incubated with 8-Br-N1-cIDPR were analysed by HPLC (grey line). Jurkat T-cells incubated with 8-Br-N1-cIDPR took up 0.16 fmol per cell with a recovery of about 88%. Results are means (n=2).
