Gene Information

human ... VDAC2(7417)

General description

VDAC2 is a voltage-dependant anion channel that forms a pathway for metabolite diffusion across the outer membrane of mitochondria. Studies have reported that VDAC2 interacts with BAK and subsequently regulates mitochondrial apoptosis/cell death.
Rabbit Anti-VDAC2 antibody recognizes chicken, human, mouse, rat, bovine, pig, canine, rabbit, and zebrafish VDAC2.

Immunogen

Synthetic peptide directed towards the N terminal region of human VDAC2

Application

Rabbit Anti-VDAC2 antibody is suitable for western blot applications at a concentration of 0.25 μg/ml.

Biochem/physiol Actions

VDAC2 forms a channel through the mitochondrial outer membrane that allows diffusion of small hydrophilic molecules. The channel adopts an open conformation at low or zero membrane potential and a closed conformation at potentials above 30-40 mV. The open state has a weak anion selectivity whereas the closed state is cation-selective.

Sequence

Synthetic peptide located within the following region: MATHGQTCARPMCIPPSYADLGKAARDIFNKGFGFGLVKLDVKTKSCSGV

Physical form

Purified antibody supplied in 1x PBS buffer with 0.09% (w/v) sodium azide and 2% sucrose.

Bax and Bak are pro-apoptotic factors that are required for cell death by the mitochondrial or intrinsic pathway. Bax is found in an inactive state in the cytosol and upon activation is targeted to the mitochondrial outer membrane where it

Truncated BID (tBID), a proapoptotic BCL2 family protein, induces BAK/BAX-dependent release of cytochrome c and other mitochondrial intermembrane proteins to the cytosol to induce apoptosis. The voltage-dependent anion channels (VDACs) are the primary gates for solutes across the outer mitochondrial

Parkin is an E3 ubiquitin ligase involved in the elimination of damaged mitochondria. Ubiquitination of mitochondrial substrates by Parkin results in proteasomal as well as lysosomal degradation of mitochondria, the latter of which is executed by the autophagy machinery and
