High impact information on VDAC1

  • In situ localization substantiated that the BR1-VDAC is associated with the plasmalemma of astrocytes [1].
  • In protein extracts of bovine spermatozoa, VDAC1, -2, and -3 were detected by specific antibodies, while only VDAC2 and -3 were found as solubilized proteins derived from purified bovine ODFs [2].
  • In addition to the voltage-dependent anion channel (VDAC), mitochondrial outer membranes contain a cationic channel of large conductance, which is blocked by a mitochondrial addressing peptide (peptide-sensitive channel, PSC) [3].
  • VDAC channels switch to lower-conductive closed states at high membrane potentials [4].
  • Characterization and partial purification of the VDAC-channel-modulating protein from calf liver mitochondria [4].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of VDAC1

  • Simple perfusion of the chamber did not reverse the effect of the modulator on VDAC [4].
