Aggregation state determines the localization and function of M1– and M23–aquaporin-4 in astrocytes

The astrocyte water channel aquaporin-4 (AQP4) is expressed as heterotetramers of M1 and M23 isoforms in which the presence of M23–AQP4 promotes formation of large macromolecular aggregates termed orthogonal arrays. Here, we demonstrate that the AQP4 aggregation state determines its subcellular loca...
