Voltage-dependent anion channels 1 and 2 are expressed in porcine oocytes [PDF]
Bioscience Reports, 2009 The eukaryotic VDAC (voltage-dependent anion channel) is a pore-forming protein originally discovered in the outer membrane of mitochondria. It has been established as a key player in mitochondrial metabolism and ion signalling. In addition, in recent years, it has also been proposed that VDAC is present in extra-mitochondrial membranes, and it has ...

Flexibility of the N-Terminal mVDAC1 Segment Controls the Channel’s Gating Behavior [PDF]
, 2012 Since the solution of the molecular structures of members of the voltage dependent anion channels (VDACs), the N-terminal α-helix has been the main focus of attention, since its strategic location, in combination with its putative conformational ...

TSPO interacts with VDAC1 and triggers a ROS-mediated inhibition of mitochondrial quality control [PDF]
, 2014 The 18-kDa TSPO (translocator protein) localizes on the outer mitochondrial membrane (OMM) and participates in cholesterol transport. Here, we report that TSPO inhibits mitochondrial autophagy downstream of the PINK1-PARK2 pathway, preventing essential ...

Phosphorylation by Nek1 regulates opening and closing of voltage dependent anion channel 1 [PDF]
Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2010 VDAC1 is a key component of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore. To initiate apoptosis and certain other forms of cell death, mitochondria become permeable such that cytochrome c and other pre-apoptotic molecules resident inside the mitochondria enter the cytosol and activate apoptotic cascades.

Hepatitis C virus replication requires integrity of mitochondria-associated ER membranes
JHEP Reports, 2023 Background & Aims: Chronic HCV infection causes cellular stress, fibrosis and predisposes to hepatocarcinogenesis. Mitochondria play key roles in orchestrating stress responses by regulating bioenergetics, inflammation and apoptosis.
