Abstract:
:The proteins Bax and Bak are central in the execution phase of apoptosis; however, little is known about the partners involved in the control of this complex process. Here, we show that mitochondrial Bak is incorporated into a VDAC2/Mtx1/Mtx2 multi-protein complex in both resting and dying cells. VDAC2 is a porin that has previously been described as a partner of Bak while Mtx1 and Mtx2 are two proteins of the mitochondrial sorting and assembly machinery (SAM) that have been implicated in TNF-induced apoptosis. We show that, after the induction of apoptosis, Bak switches from its association with Mtx2 and VDAC2 to interact with Mtx1.
