Molecular Basis of pH and Ca(2+) Regulation of Aquaporin Water Permeability
Aquaporins facilitate the diffusion of water across cell membranes. We previously showed that acid pH or low Ca(2+) increase the water permeability of bovine AQP0 expressed in Xenopus oocytes. We now show that external histidines in loops A and C mediate the pH dependence. Furthermore, the position...
