Abstract excerpt
In the past year, significant progress has been achieved in the research on aquaporins (AQPs), a family of structurally related molecular water channels. Three novel AQPs were identified, giving a total of ten mammalian AQPs. An important step forward in identifying the aqueous pore in AQP molecules was the determination of the three-dimensional structure of AQP1. The expression pattern of individual AQPs in...
