A REFINED STRUCTURE OF HUMAN AQUAPORIN 1

Contents

Overview

A refined structure of the human water channel aquaporin-1 is presented., The model rests on the high resolution X-ray structure of the homologous, bacterial glycerol transporter GlpF, electron crystallographic data at 3.8, A resolution and a multiple sequence alignment of the aquaporin, superfamily. The crystallographic R and free R values (36.7% and 37.8%), for the refined structure are significantly lower than for previous, models. Improved geometry and enhanced stability in molecular dynamics, simulations demonstrate a significant improvement of the aquaporin-1, structure. Comparison with previous aquaporin-1 models shows significant, differences, not only in the loop regions, but also in the core of the, water channel.

Disease

Known diseases associated with this structure: Aquaporin-1 deficiency OMIM:[107776], Blood group, Colton OMIM:[107776]
