Silicic acid HPLC purification of standard cardiolipin and cardiolipin extracted from dodecyl maltoside-solubilized cytochrome c oxidase or complex I. (A) Separation of mixed phospholipid standards (2 nmol of cardiolipin (CL), 4 nmol of phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), and 4 nmol of phosphatidylcholine (PC)). (B) HPLC analysis of phospholipids extracted from HiTrapQ-purified 1.0 nmol of cytochrome c oxidase. (C) HPLC analysis of phospholipids extracted from 1 nmol of isolated complex I. Detection of phospholipids elution was monitored at 203 nm with a Waters 2487 Dual λ Absorbance Detector.

MALDI-TOF/MS of standard cardiolipin and cardiolipin extracted from cytochrome c oxidase or complex I. (A) MALDI-TOF mass spectra of standard cardiolipin. Beef heart standard cardiolipin was obtained from Avanti Polar Lipids. (B) MALDI-TOF mass spectra of HPLC-isolated cardiolipin extracted from HiTrapQ-purified cytochrome c oxidase. (C) MALDI-TOF mass spectra of HPLC-isolated cardiolipin extracted from complex I. In each case cardiolipin was dissolved in chloroform and ∼15 pmol/μL spotted on the MALDI target using dihydroxybenzoic acid as the matrix. Each spectrum represents an average of 100 laser shots. Observed major peaks correspond to tetra-linoleoyl cardiolipin (1448 ± 1) modified by sodium ions.
