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 ...

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 ...

The relatively recent discovery of aquaporins (AQP) has introduced a new mechanism of membrane transport that may provide a therapeutic target for parasitic protozoan infections. The AQP family of ...

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 ...
