...membranes and this increase is blocked by Bcl-xL (Shimizu et al., 2000). Contradicting to earlier mentioned findings, Rostovtseva et al. have shown that Bid, but not Bax, interacts with VDAC in BLM and upon interaction with Bid, VDAC conductance is reduced (Rostovtseva et al., 2004). Bcl-xL alters voltage dependence of VDAC in BLM (Shimizu et al., 2000). Bax ...
