Human VDAC pseudogenes: an emerging role for VDAC1P8 pseudogene in acute myeloid leukemia

Biological Research, 2023
Background Voltage-dependent anion selective channels (VDACs) are the most abundant mitochondrial outer membrane proteins, encoded in mammals by three genes, VDAC1, 2 and 3, mostly ubiquitously expressed.

Mitochondrial oxidative stress, calcium and dynamics in cardiac ischaemia‐reperfusion injury

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Heart attack causes ischaemia–reperfusion injury in cardiomyocytes. Mitochondria generate reactive oxygen species (ROS), leading to oxidative stress. High levels of mitochondrial calcium (Ca2+) activate the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP), and excess ROS levels can lower the Ca2+ required to activate the mPTP ...

The proapoptotic protein BNIP3 interacts with VDAC to induce mitochondrial release of endonuclease G. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
BNIP3 is a proapoptotic protein that induces cell death through a mitochondria-mediated pathway. We reported previously that mitochondrial localization of BNIP3 and translocation of EndoG from mitochondria to the nucleus are critical steps of the BNIP3 ...

The mitochondrial‐targeted antioxidant SkQ1 prevents skeletal muscle mitochondrial‐apoptotic but not necroptotic signalling during ovarian cancer

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend An evaluation of the degree to which mitochondrial hydrogen peroxide emission (mH2O2)‐mediated apoptotic and necroptotic signalling contributes to skeletal muscle atrophy in an orthotopic epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) model. To determine whether attenuating mH2O2 could prevent regulated cell death signalling and mitigate muscle

VDAC proteomics: Post-translation modifications

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Biomembranes, 2012
Voltage-dependent anion channels are abundant mitochondrial outer membrane proteins expressed in three isoforms, VDAC1-3, and are considered as "mitochondrial gatekeepers". Most tissues express all three isoforms. The functions of VDACs are several-fold, ranging from metabolite and energy exchange to apoptosis.

Role of the N-Terminal Moiety in VDAC Isoforms [PDF]

Biophysical Journal, 2010
VDAC or mitochondrial porin is the most abundant transmembrane protein in the mitochondrial outer membrane. Similarly to bacterial porins that are formed of a typical transmembrane β-barrel, the mitochondrial VDAC structure has been also found to form a β-barrel [1-3]. Interestingly the VDAC N-terminal 20 amino acids fold as an amphipathic α-helix [1-3]

Solute channels of the outer membrane: from bacteria to chloroplasts [PDF]

, 2007
Chloroplasts, unique organelles of plants, originated from endosymbiosis of an ancestor of today's cyanobacteria with a mitochondria-containing host cell. It is assumed that the outer envelope membrane, which delimits the chloroplast from the surrounding

Ro5‐4864, a ligand of the mitochondrial translocator protein, protects against heart failure in mice via regulation of the p62‐Keap1‐Nrf2 axis

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Graphical abstract of the proposed Ro5‐4864 mechanism of action via p62‐Keap1‐Nrf2 axis in heart failure. TSPO, the 18‐kDa mitochondrial translocator protein of the outer mitochondrial membrane, can directly interact with p62 (also known as SQSTM1), which is crucial for the degradation of damaged mitochondria by autophagy ...

Membrane proteins in the outer mebrane of plastids and mitochondria [PDF]

, 2006
Channels of the plastid and mitochondrial outer membranes facilitate the turnover of molecules and ions via these membranes. Although channels have been studied many questions pertaining to the whole diversity of plastid and mitochondrial channels in ...

Systematic review of the value-driven attentional capture paradigm in visual attention studies: Evidence from 52 experiments

Acta Psychologica
Human visual attention is strongly influenced by rewards, affecting both top-down and bottom-up attentional processes. The value-driven attentional capture (VDAC) paradigm, introduced by Anderson et al.
