Aquaporins are membrane-channel proteins that are present at all levels of life, from bacteria to mammals. Most aquaporins are selectively permeated by water, although some family members are ...

Aquaporins are a class of proteins that form membrane channels in cell walls and allow for water movement between a cell and its surroundings. A number of aquaporins, including aquaporin-1 ...

Water flux between cells is facilitated by proteins embedded in the membrane, so-called aquaporins. Scientists at the Max Planck Institute for Biophysical Chemistry in Göttingen succeeded to ...

Regulation of aquaporin-2 by vasopressin is a result of cyclic AMP (cAMP)–dependent activation of a protein kinase network that causes increased transcription of AQP2 and redistribution of ...

Aquaporins form a large, diverse family of proteins and have been found in bacteria, plants, and animals. Less than a decade ago, scientists discovered the aquaporin Z gene (aqpZ) in E.

Aquaporins, which belong to a class of membrane proteins known as water-transporters, were first identified in 1993 by American molecular biologist and Nobel Laureate, Peter Agre. The concept of ...

Danish company Aquaporin A/S has developed a new system that uses proteins called aquaporins. “It is essentially the mechanism that allows water to cross the cell membrane of living cells ...

In these studies, they found that cells that lacked the NGLY1 protein had fewer aquaporins—proteins that connect the inside and outside of a cell and control water movement—and were resistant ...

The following is a summary of “Fluctuations in serum aquaporin-4 antibody titers: the clinical significance in neuromyelitis ...

Aquaporins and glucose transporters facilitate the movement of substances across biological membranes and are present in all kingdoms of life.Biophysicists used a supercomputer to explore the ...
