摘要:

The proapoptotic mammalian protein Bax associates with mitochondrial membranes and confers a lethal phenotype when expressed in yeast. By generating Bax-resistant mutant yeast and using classical complementation cloning methods, subunits of the mitochondrial F_0F_1-ATPase protone pump were determined to be critical for Bax-mediated killing in S. cerevisiae. A pharmacological inhibitor of the proton pump, oligomycin, also partially abrogated the cytotoxic actions of Bax in yeast. In mammalian cells, oligomycin also inhibited Bax-induced apoptosis and activation of cell death proteases. The findings imply that an intact F_0F_1-ATPase in the inner membrane of mitochondria is necessary for optimal function of Bax in both yeast and mammalian cells.
