Abstract:
:The initial data on the effect of ruthenium red on mature human type-1 VDAC are presented. Highly enriched human type-1 porin in planar lipid bilayers shows lowered voltage-dependence whenever a commercially available ruthenium red preparation is applied. The hexavalent polycationic dye ruthenium red affects different functions in varying cell compartments. Concerning the plasma membrane of cells the actual data, together with our former measurements on the interaction of VDAC and the polycationic synthetic polyamine Compound 48/80, refer to a second VDAC opener, which is relevant for studies on the stimulation of exocytotic processes of different cell types.
