abstract：:Previous in vitro studies indicated that mutation of both K234 and K236 to arginine, glutamine, or glutamic acid impaired the ability of the voltage-dependent anion channel (VDAC1) to insert into the outer membrane of the mitochondria (Smith et al. 1995). These same mutants were expressed in a strain of Saccharomyces ...
