Term Information

Accession
GO:0097345
Name
mitochondrial outer membrane permeabilization
Ontology
biological_process
Synonyms
MOMP, mitochondrion outer membrane permeabilization, mitochondrial outer membrane permeabilization during apoptotic cell death
Alternate IDs
None
Definition
The process by which the mitochondrial outer membrane becomes permeable to the passing of proteins and other molecules from the intermembrane space to the cytosol as part of the apoptotic signaling pathway. Source: GOC:BHF, PMID:21041309, GOC:mtg_apoptosis, GOC:pg
Comment
BAX and BAK are involved in this process, as reviewed in PMID:21760595 (the human proteins have UniProt symbols Q07812 and Q16611 respectively).
