This study identifies VDAC2 as a regulator of BAX activation by stabilizing a primed, membrane-inserted intermediate in the BAX activation pathway.

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

This study examines how mitochondrial outer membrane lipids affect VDAC1 assembly using atomic force microscopy and simulations, showing lipid regulation of VDAC organization.
