SandboxE aquaporin
From Proteopedia
Aquaporin are membrane spanning channels transporting water, glycerol and othe small solutes. The family is divided into two different subgroups, the orthodox aquaporins and the aquaglyceroporins with each family having a different transport specificity. Both families share a common fold with 6 transmembrane helices and a seventh pseudohelix formed by two of the loops.
