Analyzing Mass Spectrometry Imaging Data of 13C-Labeled Phospholipids in Camelina sativa and Thlaspi arvense (Pennycress) Embryos (open access)

Analyzing Mass Spectrometry Imaging Data of 13C-Labeled Phospholipids in Camelina sativa and Thlaspi arvense (Pennycress) Embryos

This article uses currently available software and techniques to describe a workflow to analyze ¹³C-labeled isotopologues of the membrane lipid and storage oil lipid intermediate—phosphatidylcholine (PC). Results demonstrated greater ¹³C-isotopic labeling in the cotyledons of developing embryos compared with the embryonic axis.
