A mitochondrial porin cDNA predicts the existence of multiple human porins

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1993
Pores formed in the outer membrane of mitochondria by mitochondrial porin make it permeable to water-soluble metabolites smaller than approximately 5 kDa. We have isolated a full-length cDNA encoding a human porin. This probe detects a single approximately 1.5-kilobase mRNA species on Northern blots, but multiple hybridizing bands on genomic Southern ...

Dimeric porin from Paracoccus denitrificans [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology, 1985
Paracoccus denitrificans was shown to contain a 33,000-dalton porin, which produced pores of large (1.6 to 1.8 nm) diameter. Cross-linking studies showed that the porin existed as dimers in the outer membrane.

Characteristics of Sucrose Transport through the Sucrose-Specific Porin ScrY Studied by Molecular Dynamics Simulations

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2016
Sucrose-specific porin (ScrY) is a transmembrane protein that allows for the uptake of sucrose under growth-limiting conditions. The crystal structure of ScrY was resolved before by X-ray crystallography, both in its uncomplexed form and with bound ...

Mitochondrial Porin Is Involved in Development, Virulence, and Autophagy in Fusarium graminearum

open access: yesJournal of Fungi, 2022
Mitochondrial porin, the voltage-dependent anion-selective channel (VDAC), is the most abundant protein in the outer membrane, and is critical for the exchange of metabolites and phospholipids in yeast and mammals.

Redefining Therapies for Drug‐Resistant Tuberculosis: Synergistic Effects of Antimicrobial Peptides, Nanotechnology, and Computational Design

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Antimicrobial peptide (AMP)‐loaded nanocarriers provide a multifunctional strategy to combat drug‐resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis. By enhancing intracellular delivery, bypassing efflux pumps, and disrupting bacterial membranes, this platform restores phagolysosome fusion and macrophage function.

Historical Perspective of Pore-Forming Activity Studies of Voltage-Dependent Anion Channel (Eukaryotic or Mitochondrial Porin) Since Its Discovery in the 70th of the Last Century

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2021
Eukaryotic porin, also known as Voltage-Dependent Anion Channel (VDAC), is the most frequent protein in the outer membrane of mitochondria that are responsible for cellular respiration.

Discovery of H2 Receptor Antagonists as Colistin Enhancers by Targeting Acid Stress Response

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies YqgB as a key target for restoring colistin susceptibility in mcr‐positive pathogens under acidic conditions by remodeling phospholipid composition and reducing LPS modification. Deep learning‐based screening reveals H2 receptor antagonists as novel colistin adjuvants. Further investigations indicate that ranitidine and famotidine
