The paper investigates how α-synuclein interacts differently with VDAC isoforms by analyzing binding kinetics and translocation behavior in planar lipid membranes.

The paper characterizes three polymorphic structures of rapidly twisting Aβ40 fibrils using cryo-EM, revealing differences in twist handedness, symmetry, and conformation despite similar cross-over distances.

This paper shows that VBIT-4 disrupts mitochondrial membranes and causes cytotoxicity, challenging its role as a VDAC1 oligomerization inhibitor.

This study investigates VDAC2's conformational flexibility and its impact on interactions with cytosolic proteins like α-synuclein, revealing kinetic differences without altering binding affinity.
