Like other ions and metabolites, pyruvate (PYR) probably crosses the outer mitochondrial membrane through the relatively non-specific, voltage-dependent anion-selective channel protein 1 (VDAC1). The channel is in a high-conductance, moderately anion-selective state at low membrane potentials (McCommis & Finck, 2015; Najbauer et al., 2022). VDAC1 is inhibited by NO (Cheng et al., 2011). It is unknown if VDAC1 needs to be in the open state to pass PYR. However, humans with defective VDAC1 show impaired PYR oxidation and ATP production (Huizing et al. 1996). The role of VDAC1 in mitochondrial dysfunction and disease was reviewed in Varughese et al., 2021.
