In Silico Exploration of Alternative Conformational States of VDAC

open access: yesMolecules, 2023
VDAC (Voltage-Dependent Anion-selective Channel) is the primary metabolite pore in the mitochondrial outer membrane (OM). Atomic structures of VDAC, consistent with its physiological “open” state, are β-barrels formed by 19 transmembrane (TM) β-strands ...

VDAC Modulation of Cancer Metabolism: Advances and Therapeutic Challenges [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2021
Most anionic metabolites including respiratory substrates, glycolytic adenosine triphosphate (ATP), and small cations that enter mitochondria, and mitochondrial ATP moving to the cytosol, cross the outer mitochondrial membrane (OMM) through voltage ...

Membrane lipid composition modulates the organization of VDAC1, a mitochondrial gatekeeper [PDF]

open access: yesCommunications Biology
VDACs, the most abundant proteins in the outer mitochondrial membrane (MOM), are crucial for mitochondrial physiology. VDAC regulate metabolite and ion exchange, modulate calcium homeostasis, and play roles in numerous cellular events such as apoptosis ...

Modulation of mitochondrial voltage dependent anion channel: studies on bilayer electrophysiology [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology
The present paper is a review of the mitochondrial Voltage Dependent Anion Channel (VDAC), popularly known as mitochondrial porin, which is a protein that forms a passive diffusion ion channel across the outer membrane of the mitochondrion.

Single scores in the RT-based value-driven attentional capture paradigm have high reliability [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
Value-driven attentional capture (VDAC) involves involuntary attention shifts towards neutral stimuli previously associated with rewards. This phenomenon is pertinent for various neuropsychiatric conditions. This study aims to evaluate the reliability of

Establishment of an orthotopic tumor model in the mammary gland of BALB/C nude mice using human breast cancer MCF-7 cells and their VDAC-deficient derivatives

open access: yesСибирский онкологический журнал, 2022
Purpose to study the tumor-forming activity of wild-type MC F-7 cells carrying a full set of porins (VDAC 1, VDAC 2, VDAC 3), as well as their genetically modified cells, from which one of the isoforms was removed (MC F-7 VDAC 1 KO, MC F-7 VDAC 2 KO, MC ...

The Role of Voltage-Dependent Anion Channel in Mitochondrial Dysfunction and Human Disease

open access: yesCells, 2021
The voltage-dependent anion channel (VDAC) is a β-barrel membrane protein located in the outer mitochondrial membrane (OMM). VDAC has two conductance states: an open anion selective state, and a closed and slightly cation-selective state.

Redox-Sensitive VDAC: A Possible Function as an Environmental Stress Sensor Revealed by Bioinformatic Analysis

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2021
Voltage-dependent anion-selective channel (VDAC) allows the exchange of small metabolites and inorganic ions across the mitochondrial outer membrane. It is involved in complex interactions that regulate mitochondrial and cellular functioning.

A C-Terminally Truncated Variant of Neurospora crassa VDAC Assembles Into a Partially Functional Form in the Mitochondrial Outer Membrane and Forms Multimers in vitro

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2021
The voltage-dependent anion-selective channel (VDAC) is a porin in the mitochondrial outer membrane (MOM). Unlike bacterial porins, several mitochondrial β-barrels comprise an odd number of β-strands, as is the case for the 19-β-stranded VDAC. Previously,

The Biogenesis Process of VDAC – From Early Cytosolic Events to Its Final Membrane Integration

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2021
Voltage dependent anion-selective channel (VDAC) is the most abundant protein in the mitochondrial outer membrane. It is a membrane embedded β-barrel protein composed of 19 mostly anti-parallel β-strands that form a hydrophilic pore.
