    (a) Schematic outline of calcein release assay for measuring pore-forming activity of <t>cBid-activated</t> <t>recombinant</t> <t>Bax</t> in large unilamellar vesicles. (b) Real-time chromatograms of calcein released from PC:CL (80:20) vesicles co-incubated with the indicated amount of unlabeled Bax or DY-647P1-labeled Bax and 50 nM cBid. Leakiness of vesicles was tested by omitting Bax and cBid (no addition). (c) Real-time chromatograms of calcein released from PC (100) and PC:CL (80:20) vesicles incubated with different combinations of 100 nM Bax and 50 nM cBid. Calcein release was measured over 120 min at 2 min intervals using a fluorescence plate reader. For each time point, the mean values of three independent measurements were determined and normalized to the value measured after Triton X100 (TX) addition, which served as a reference for 100% permeabilization.

    (a) Schematic outline of calcein permeabilization assay for measuring pore-forming activity of recombinant Bax in giant unilamellar vesicles (GUVs). (b) GUVs prepared from PC (100) or PC:CL (80:20) were stained with DiI ( red ) and incubated with calcein ( green ) in the absence or presence of 400 nM Bax 647 ( magenta ) and 50 nM cBid. GUVs were imaged at the indicated time points using a LSM Airyscan microscope. Scale bar 10 µm. (c) Quantification of the permeability of GUVs for Bax 647 ( magenta ) and calcein ( green ) at the indicated incubation times. GUVs with a degree of filling of 40 % or more were considered permeable. For GUVs prepared from PC:CL (80:20), a total number of 70-100 GUVs were analyzed in three independent experiments. For GUVs prepared from PC (100), a total of 50 GUVs were analyzed in one experiment. Data are means ± SD. (d) GUVs prepared from PC (100; DiO; green ) or PC:CL (80:20; DiI; red ) were incubated in the presence of 400 nM Bax 647 ( magenta ) and 50 nM cBid. GUVs were imaged as in (b). Line scans along the path of the arrows show the degree of leakage of Bax 647 inside PC and PC:CL-containing GUVs. Scale bar 10 µm.

    (a) Schematic outline of calcein permeabilization assay for measuring pore-forming activity of recombinant Bax in giant unilamellar vesicles (GUVs). (b) GUVs prepared from PC (100) or PC:CL (80:20) were stained with DiI ( red ) and incubated with calcein ( green ) in the absence or presence of 400 nM Bax 647 ( magenta ) and 50 nM cBid. GUVs were imaged at the indicated time points using a LSM Airyscan microscope. Scale bar 10 µm. (c) Quantification of the permeability of GUVs for Bax 647 ( magenta ) and calcein ( green ) at the indicated incubation times. GUVs with a degree of filling of 40 % or more were considered permeable. For GUVs prepared from PC:CL (80:20), a total number of 70-100 GUVs were analyzed in three independent experiments. For GUVs prepared from PC (100), a total of 50 GUVs were analyzed in one experiment. Data are means ± SD. (d) GUVs prepared from PC (100; DiO; green ) or PC:CL (80:20; DiI; red ) were incubated in the presence of 400 nM Bax 647 ( magenta ) and 50 nM cBid. GUVs were imaged as in (b). Line scans along the path of the arrows show the degree of leakage of Bax 647 inside PC and PC:CL-containing GUVs. Scale bar 10 µm.

    Real-time chromatograms of calcein released from PC:CL (80:20) vesicles incubated in the absence or presence of 100 nM Bax or 50 nM cBid. Leakiness of vesicles was tested by omitting Bax and cBid (no addition). Calcein release was measured over 120 min at 2 min intervals using a fluorescence plate reader. For each time point, the mean values of three independent measurements were determined and normalized to the value measured after Triton X100 (TX) addition, which served as a reference for 100% permeabilization.
