The Degradation Mechanism of Toxic Atractyloside in Herbal Medicines by Decoction
Atractyloside (ATR) is found in many Asteraceae plants that are commonly used as medicinal herbs in China and other eastern Asian countries. ATR binds specifically to the adenine nucleotide translocator in the inner mitochondrial membrane and ...

ANT1 overexpression models: Some similarities with facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy
Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by progressive muscle weakness. Adenine nucleotide translocator 1 (ANT1), the only 4q35 gene involved in mitochondrial function, is strongly expressed in FSHD ...

HIV-1 Vpr-induced apoptosis is cell cycle dependent and requires Bax but not ANT. [PDF]
The HIV-1 accessory protein viral protein R (Vpr) causes G2 arrest and apoptosis in infected cells. We previously identified the DNA damage-signaling protein ATR as the cellular factor that mediates Vpr-induced G2 arrest and apoptosis.

Cyclophilin D Contributes to Anesthesia Neurotoxicity in the Developing Brain
Anesthetic sevoflurane induces mitochondrial dysfunction, impairment of neurogenesis, and cognitive impairment in young mice, but the underlying mechanism remains to be determined.

Dietary and genetic stress trigger different routes to heart failure. In mice, a carbohydrate‐free high‐fat diet caused mitochondrial dysfunction and impaired energy production with preserved pumping function, while genetic obesity led to heart enlargement, fibrosis, and reduced function.

Background: Parkin, which when mutated leads to early-onset Parkinson’s disease, acts as an E3 ubiquitin ligase. How Parkin is regulated for selective protein and organelle targeting is not well understood.

Functional Insights on the Human Adenine Nucleotide Translocator Interactome
The adenine nucleotide translocator (ANT), by mediating the exchange of ADP for ATP across the inner mitochondrial membrane, lies at the core of oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS).

Progressive Alteration of UCP and ANT in Skeletal Muscle of Fasted Chickens
Avian uncoupling protein (avUCP), sharing 71-73% amino acid homology with both UCP2 and UCP3, is one of the mitochondrial anion carrier proteins. Its precise physiological roles in the cell remain elusive.
