Aquaporins (AQPs) are a family of transmembrane proteins present in almost all species
including virus. They are grossly divided into three subfamilies based on the sequence …

Aquaporins (AQPs) were originally identified as channels facilitating water transport across
the plasma membrane. They have a pair of highly conserved signature sequences …

Aquaporins (AQPs) represent a family of channel proteins that transport water and/or small
solutes across cell membranes in the three domains of life. In all previous phylogenetic …

As described in its preface, the first edition of Aquaporins, published in 2017, focused on the
gene organization, protein crystal structure, expression localization, physiological functions …

Aquaporins (AQPs) are a family of highly selective transmembrane channels that mainly
transport water across the cell and some facilitate low-molecular-weight solutes. Eight AQPs …

Aquaporins (AQPs) belong to a transmembrane protein superfamily composed of an internal
repeat of a three membrane-spanning domain and each has a highly conserved NPA box …

Currently, aquaporins (AQPs) are divided into two subfamilies: AQP1 group and AQP3
group. AQP1 group is water-selective AQP and has 6 members in mammals: AQPO, AQP1 …

The cDNA and the gene of human aquaporin8 (AQP8) were cloned from human testis cDNA
and a genomic library, respectively. The AQP8 cDNA encodes 261 amino acids. The identity …

Aquaporins (AQPs) are integral membrane proteins and found in all living organisms from
bacteria to human. AQPs mainly involved in the transmembrane diffusion of water as well as …

Maintenance of fluid homeostasis is critical to establishing and maintaining normal
physiology. The landmark discovery of membrane water channels (aquaporins; AQPs) …
