Aquaporin-3 ELISA Kits

Aquaporin 3 is a water channel protein. Aquaporins are a family of small integral membrane proteins related to themajor intrinsic protein (MIP or AQP0). Aquaporin 3 is localized at the basal lateral membranes of collecting ductcells in the kidney. In addition to its water channel function, aquaporin 3 has been found to facilitate the transportof nonionic small solutes such as urea and glycerol, but to a smaller degree. It has been suggested that waterchannels can be functionally heterogeneous and possess water and solute permeation mechanisms. (provided by RefSeq)
