Crystal Structure of Human Aquaporin 4, 3gd8
Aquaporins are channel producing proteins which regulate the flow of water across the cell membrane. They are made of α-helix bundles. More details of aquaporin-1 in Aquaporin-1. Aquaglyceroporin (GLpf) conducts water and polyalcohols. The image on the left shows the protein, 6 molecules of glycerol and one of beta-octylglucoside.
