Sample Preparation:

Sampleprep ID:	SP001895
Sampleprep Summary:	Fifty mg of root tissue was excised from 10 day old seedlings of Arabidopsis grown with 5 mM KNO3, collected in 2 mL Eppendorf tubes and flash frozen in liquid N2. Frozen tissue was homogenized using a tissue lyser and metabolites were isolated using 1 mL of methanol:water (4:1) with incubation in an ultra-sonication bath for 20 min followed by shaking for 30 min at 4 °C. The mixture was centrifuged at 12,000 × g for 10 min at 4 °C and 700 µl of the supernatant was transferred into fresh tubes and evaporated to dryness using a Vacufuge at ambient temperature. Dried metabolite extracts were re-suspended in HEPES buffer pH 7.5 instead of 1:1 methanol:water. Samples were spiked with a final concentration of 1 µM 15N Gln and 5 µg of the full length or glutaminase domain versions of recombinant GAT1_2.1 protein along with 2 mM DTT and 5 mM MgCl2. Following this, samples were incubated at 37 °C for 2 hours and then filtered through a 3K micro centrifuge filter (Sigma-Aldrich) to remove the protein. Samples were then evaporated to dryness using a vacufuge at ambient temperature and the residue was re-dissolved in 1:1 methanol:water, filtered with a 0.2 µm PTFE microfuge filters (Whatman) and subjected to LC-MS analysis and ammonium quantification.
