abstract = {Proteins belonging to the BCL2 family are key modulators of
apoptosis that establish a complex network of interactions
among themselves and with other cellular factors to regulate
cell fate. It is well established that mitochondrial
membranes are the main locus of action of all BCL2 family
proteins, but it is difficult to obtain a precise view of
how BCL2 family members operate at the native mitochondrial
membrane environment during apoptosis. Here, we used
minimalist model systems and multiple fluorescence-based
techniques to examine selected membrane activities of MCL1
and BAK under apoptotic-like conditions. We show that three
distinct apoptosis-related factors (i.e. the BCL2 homology 3
ligand cBID, the mitochondrion-specific lipid cardiolipin,
and membrane geometrical curvature) all promote membrane
association of BCL2-like structural folds belonging to both
MCL1 and BAK. However, at the same time, the two proteins
exhibited distinguishing features in their membrane
association modes under apoptotic-like conditions. In
addition, scanning fluorescence cross-correlation
spectroscopy and FRET measurements revealed that the
BCL2-like structural fold of MCL1, but not that of BAK,
forms stable heterodimeric complexes with cBID in a manner
adjustable by membrane cardiolipin content and curvature
degree. Our results add significantly to a growing body of
evidence indicating that the mitochondrial membrane
environment plays a complex and active role in the mode of
action of BCL2 family proteins.},
