Identification of compounds enhancing <i>Aqp4</i> stop codon readthrough
2020-11-02
Abstract excerpt
An unusual stop codon readthrough event generates a conserved C-terminally elongated variant of the water channel protein Aquaporin 4 (AQP4). In the brain, AQP4 is astrocyte-specific, required for normal functioning of the glymphatic system, and involved in the clearance of the Alzheimer’s associated protein Amyloid beta. Further, the readthrough variant is localized exclusively perivascularly, and the perivascula...
