Relevance

The Voltage-Dependent Anion Channel (VDAC or mitochondrial Porin) is an outer membrane mitochondrial protein. The VDAC protein is thought to form the major pores through which adenine nucleotides cross the outer mitochondrial membrane. VDAC has also been implicated in the formation of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore complex in apoptotic cells. This complex, formed by VDAC, adenine nucleotide translocator (ANT) and cyclophilin D (CypD) is thought to allow the mitochondria to undergo metabolic uncoupling and irreversible morphologic changes that ultimately destroy the mitochondria during apoptosis. At the mRNA level, the tissue distribution of mitochondrial transport proteins appears to be related to the dependence of each tissue on mitochondrial energy production capacity. As a general rule, these are higher in tissues like skeletal muscle and heart; in liver and pancreas expression levels differ with each protein and in placenta, lung, kidney and brain the expression is lower than in the other tissues.

Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - VDAC1 / Porin antibody - Mitochondrial Loading Control (ab15895)
ICC/IF image of ab15895 stained human HeLa cells. The cells were methanol fixed (5 min) and incubated with the antibody (ab15895, 5µg/ml) for 1h at room temperature. The secondary antibody (green) was Alexa Fluor® 488 goat anti-rabbit IgG (H+L) used at a 1/1000 dilution for 1h. Image-iTTM FX Signal Enhancer was used as the primary blocking agent, 5% BSA (TBS-T) was used for all other blocking steps. DAPI was used to stain the cell nuclei (blue). Alexa Fluor® 594 phalloidin was used to label F-actin (red).
