"Since protonation of Histidine 404 of Kv1.3 has been shown to reduce the interaction of the pore with toxins, it is assumed that Bax binds to and inhibits Kv1.3 in a very similar manner as highly spec[MISSING/INVALID CREDENTIALS: limited to 200 char for Elsevier]"

"The strength of this interaction significantly decreased when pH was lowered to 6.0, further confirming that Bax binds to Kv1.3 in a manner similar to Margatoxin."

"Strongly relating potassium channels with the regulation of apoptosis, an physical interaction between Bax and Kv1.3 was reported in lymphocytes, which appeared as necessary for Bax-induced apoptosis xref ."

"The interaction of Bax and Kv1.3 was pH-dependent and the IC 50 of Bax increased from 4 to 12 nM when the bath solution pH was lowered to pH 6.7 and to a value ≫50 nM at pH 6.0."

"This points to an interaction of Bax with the Kv1.3 and the authors showed, indeed, that they physically interact."

"Transfection of Bax/Bak double knock-out MEF cells with expression vectors for wildtype Bax, K128E Bax or E158K Bcl-x L confirmed the suggested mechanism of Kv1.3-Bax interactions and showed that tran[MISSING/INVALID CREDENTIALS: limited to 200 char for Elsevier]"

"Several further studies demonstrated that Bax does not only interact with Kv1.3, but also with the homologs of Kv1.3, Kv1.5 and Kv1.1 [49,82] ."

"In lymphocytes, Bax interaction with mitochondrial Kv1.3 is a crucial step that precedes cytochrome c release during apoptosis (Gulbins et al., 2010)."

"In this mechanism, Kv1.3 on the mitochondrial membrane interacts with Bax (Bcl-2 family), triggering apoptosis in the way of toxoid ( xref )."

"Our results point to a physiologically relevant interaction of Bax with Kv1.3 and further indicate a crucial role of a distinct lysine in determining the proapoptotic character of Bcl2-family proteins."

"These analogies between Kv1.3 toxins and Bax led to studies that tested whether Bax and Bak bind to Kv1.3 and induce cell death in a toxin-like fashion."

"To further prove the specificity of the interaction of Bax and Kv1.3 we added MgTx (5 μM) to GST-Kv1.3 (∼ 2 nM) prior to addition of GST-Bax."

"As MgTx specifically binds to the pore of Kv1.3 with very high affinity (IC 50 : 110 pM), an excess of MgTx (5 μM) will prevent binding of Bax to Kv1.3, but only if Bax binds in the pore region of Kv1[MISSING/INVALID CREDENTIALS: limited to 200 char for Elsevier]"
