Membrane insertion of the BAX core, but not latch domain, drives apoptotic pore formation

Despite intensive research effort, how the paradigmatic proapoptotic protein BAX forms lethal apoptotic pores at the mitochondrial outer membrane (MOM) remains incompletely understood. Here, we used biophysical tools and minimalist model systems to identify the specific regions in BAX driving apopto...
