GFP/PE annexin

Dear Everyone:
1. I transiently cotransfected into a human multiple myeloma cell line
(that is very difficult to transfect) a GFP neo expression vector along
with an expression vector in 1:10 and 1:20 ratio and then determine the
effect of overexpression of specific protein on drug-induced apoptosis.
Since the transfection efficiency is low (2-10%), I wanted to gate on
the GFP population and then measure annexin V binding using PE-annexin..

I would like input re: optimal parameters used to aquire
as well as analyze data. Is my strategy correct?

2. Does anyone have experience using mitocapture mitochondrial apoptosis
detection kit (Alexis Biochemicals)?  If so, how do perform the
analysis.

Thank you in advance,
Rena
