Abstract excerpt
Aquaporin (AQP) folding in the endoplasmic reticulum is characterized by two distinct pathways of membrane insertion that arise from divergent residues within the second transmembrane segment. We now show that in AQP1 these residues (Asn49 and Lys51) interact with Asp185 at the C terminus of TM5...
