Abstract excerpt
Human aquaporin-2 (AQP2) is the principal water channel in the human kidney. Any alteration of its physiological functioning may lead to the water imbalance and consequently diseases in humans, especially nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI). Although many of the mutations associated with NDI are experimentally discovered and examined, a molecular level characterization of the structure and transport mechanism is...
