Purification of VDAC (Voltage-dependent anion-selective channel) from rat liver mitochondria

Journal of Membrane Biology, 1983
The outer membrane of rat liver mitochondria contains a channel-forming protein known as VDAC (voltage-dependent anion-selective channel). This protein has been functionally purified by a combination of ion exchange chromatography, gel filtration and affinity chromatography on a Concanavalin A-containing column.

Expression and localization of voltage-dependent anion channels (VDAC) in human spermatozoa

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2009
Voltage-dependent anion channels (VDAC), also known as mitochondrial porins, are a group of proteins first identified in the mitochondrial outer membrane that are able to form hydrophilic pore structures. VDAC allow the passage of the metabolites across the mitochondrial outer membrane, and are involved in metabolite transport and signal transduction ...

Mitochondrial membrane cholesterol, the voltage dependent anion channel (VDAC), and the Warburg effect

Journal of Bioenergetics and Biomembranes, 2008
Normal cells of aerobic organisms synthesize the energy they require in the form of ATP via the process of oxidative phosphorylation. This complex system resides in the mitochondria of cells and utilizes oxygen to produce a majority of cellular ATP.

STRUCTURE AND MODE OF ACTION OF A VOLTAGE DEPENDENT ANION-SELECTIVE CHANNEL (VDAC) LOCATED IN THE OUTER MITOCHONDRIAL MEMBRANE DEPENDENT ANION-SELECTIVE CHANNEL (VDAC)

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 1980
VDAC is a channel-forming protein, located in the outer mitochondrial membrane, whose properties are consistent with the known permeability behavior of that membrane. When extracted with Triton X-100, VDAC exists as a 110,000 molecular weight glycoprotein complex which is a prepackaged channel. When inserted into liposomes, the permeability increase to

Structural Analysis of Murine Voltage Dependent Anion Channel (VDAC) 1

The FASEB Journal, 2006
VDAC is a mammalian integral protein expressed in the outer mitochondrial membrane. It has a bi‐functional role in mitochondrial biology: under physiological conditions, it transports nucleotides and small molecules across the outer membrane and

The Mitochondrial Voltage-dependent Anion Channel (VDAC) as a Therapeutic Target for Initiating Cell Death

Current Medicinal Chemistry, 2003
Voltage-dependent anion channels (VDAC) are major constituents of the outer mitochondrial membrane. Over the past few years, several hypotheses and mechanisms have been forwarded for and against a role for VDAC in outer mitochondrial membrane permeability and the subsequent release of apoptosis promoting factors.

Modulation of the mitochondrial voltage-dependent anion channel (VDAC) by hydrogen peroxide and its recovery by curcumin

European Biophysics Journal, 2020
The Voltage-Dependent Anion Channel (VDAC) plays a vital role in mitochondria-mediated transport of ions and metabolites. It is well established that mitochondria are a site for production of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Excess production of H2O2 is toxic to the cell and causes oxidative stress.

Mitochondrial voltage-dependent anion channels (VDACs) as novel pharmacological targets for anti-cancer agents

Journal of Bioenergetics and Biomembranes, 2008
Recently, it was demonstrated that some anti-cancer agents used mitochondrial voltage-dependent anion channels (VDAC1-3 isoforms) as their pharmacological target. VDACs are expressed more highly in cancer cells than normal cells; thus the VDAC-dependent cytotoxic agents can have cancer-selectivity. Furanonaphthoquinones (FNQs) induced caspase-dependent

Zhonghua nan ke xue = National journal of andrology, 2007
To further study gene expression and characterization of voltage-dependent anion channels (VDACs) on human spermatozoa.VDACs were cloned by PCR from the testis cDNA library. Recombinant human sperm VDACs were produced in E. coli system by molecular cloning technology.

The Voltage-Dependent Anion Channel (VDAC): Function in Intracellular Signalling, Cell Life and Cell Death

Current Pharmaceutical Design, 2006
Research over the last decade has extended the prevailing view of mitochondria to include functions well beyond the critical bioenergetics role in supplying ATP. It is now recognized that mitochondria play a crucial role in cell signaling events, inter-organelle communication, aging, many diseases, cell proliferation and cell death.
