Crystal Structure of a Yeast Aquaporin at 1.15 Å Reveals a Novel Gating Mechanism

Aquaporins are transmembrane proteins that facilitate the flow of water through cellular membranes. An unusual characteristic of yeast aquaporins is that they frequently contain an extended N terminus of unknown function. Here we present the X-ray structure of the yeast aquaporin Aqy1 from Pichia pa...
