VDAC

VDAC

The most prevalent proteins in the outer mitochondrial membrane (OMM), also referred to as mitochondrial porins, are VDAC (voltage-dependent anion selective channel) proteins. They are essential for a variety of cellular functions, including the control of metabolism and survival pathways. They ensure that mitochondrial complexes function properly and that energy is produced by mediating the exchange of ions (such as Ca2+) and metabolites (such as succinate or ATP, tRNA, or DNA) between mitochondria and the rest of the cell.

The three VDAC isoforms (VDAC1, VDAC2, and VDAC3) found in higher eukaryotes are each encoded by a unique gene found on a different chromosome. The use of VDAC in cancer and Alzheimer's disease research is possible.
