It is located in the outer mitochondrial membrane and is express widely in various tissues. This protein forms a channel that allows the transport of metabolites and ions playing an important role in regulating energy and metabolic exchange between the mitochondria and the rest of the cell. Scientists often study it as a significant focus in cellular bioenergetics and apoptosis research.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nVDAC1 acts as a pore-forming unit within the mitochondrial membrane allowing for the passage of small hydrophilic molecules. It is not part of a larger complex but works closely with other proteins to maintain mitochondrial function. VDAC1 regulates the entry and exit of proteins and ions essential for mitochondrial homeostasis and cellular energy production. By controlling the exchange of inorganic phosphate adenine nucleotides and Ca2+ VDAC1 influences both mitochondrial and cellular metabolism.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nVDAC1 is involved in apoptosis and energy production pathways. It associates with proteins such as the Bcl-2 family in the apoptosis pathway influencing cell survival and programmed cell death. In energy production VDAC1 works in conjunction with the adenine nucleotide translocase facilitating ATP and ADP exchanges that are critical for maintaining cellular energy levels.\u003cbr\u003e\nVDAC1 has a connection to cancer and neurodegenerative diseases. Upregulation or dysfunction of VDAC1 is observed in various cancers where it affects mitochondrial apoptosis regulation linked often with Bcl-2 anti-apoptotic proteins. In neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's alterations in VDAC1 expression and function can disrupt mitochondrial permeability. This interaction can result in disturbed neuronal energy metabolism often associated with amyloid precursor protein and its derivatives.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46845107437737,"sku":"ab255444","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/es\/products\/abcam-ab255444","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
