Organ-specific splice variants of aquaporin water channel AgAQP1 in the malaria vector Anopheles gambiae.
Aquaporin (AQP) water channels are important for water homeostasis in all organisms. Malaria transmission is dependent on Anopheles mosquitoes. Water balance is a major factor influencing mosquito survival, which may indirectly affect pathogen transmission.We obtained full-length mRNA sequences for...
