Structural and functional analysis of aquaporin-2 mutants involved in nephrogenic diabetes insipidus
Abstract Aquaporins are water channels found in the cell membrane, where they allow the passage of water molecules in and out of the cells. In the kidney collecting duct, arginine vasopressin-dependent trafficking of aquaporin-2 (AQP2) fine-tunes reabsorption of water from pre-urine, allowing precis...
