Reconstitution of the anti-apoptotic bcl-2 protein into lipid membranes and biophysical evidence for its detergent-driven association with the pro-apoptotic bax protein

The anti-apoptotic B-cell CLL/lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2) protein and its counterpart, the pro-apoptotic Bcl-2-associated X protein (Bax), are key players in the regulation of the mitochondrial pathway of apoptosis. However, how they interact at the mitochondrial outer membrane (MOM) and there determine whet...
