Gene nameVDAC2
Protein nameVoltage-dependent anion-selective channel protein 2 (Outer mitochondrial membrane protein porin 2)
Voltage-dependent anion-selective channel protein 2 (VDAC-2) (hVDAC2) (Outer mitochondrial membrane protein porin 2)
SynonymshCG_23984
DescriptionFUNCTION: Forms a channel through the mitochondrial outer membrane that allows diffusion of small hydrophilic molecules (By similarity). The channel adopts an open conformation at low or zero membrane potential and a closed conformation at potentials above 30-40 mV (By similarity). The open state has a weak anion selectivity whereas the closed state is cation-selective (By similarity). Binds various lipids, including the sphingolipid ceramide, the phospholipid phosphatidylcholine, and the sterols cholesterol and oxysterol . Binding of ceramide promotes the mitochondrial outer membrane permeabilization (MOMP) apoptotic pathway . .
