1 Apr 1996
Abstract excerpt
The cDNA for the fifth mammalian aquaporin (AQP5) was isolated from rat, and expression was demonstrated in rat salivary and lacrimal glands, cornea, and lung (Raina, S., Preston, G. M., Guggino, W.

The AQP5 cDNA from a human submaxillary gland library contains a 795-base pair...
