  1. 1. Regulation and transport mechanisms of eukaryotic aquaporins

    Författare :Madelene Palmgren; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Aquaporin; Membrane protein; Transport; Glycerol; Aquaglyceroporins; Regulation; arsenite;

    Sammanfattning : Aquaporins are found in all kingdoms of life where they are involved in water homeostasis. They are small transmembrane water conducting channels that belong to the ancient protein family Major Intrinsic Proteins (MIP). LÄS MER

  3. 2. Glucose and glycerol transport in adipocytes from a structural perspective

    Författare :Peng Huang; Medicinsk strukturbiologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; adipocytes; glucose and glycerol metabolism; glucose transporters; aquaglyceroporins; glucose transporter 4; aquaglyceroporin 7; protein and protein interaction; structure; single particle cryo-EM;

    Sammanfattning : Adipocytes are crucial energy reservoirs to maintain metabolic homeostasis of glucose and lipids in the human body.Glucose transporters (GLUTs) and aquaporins (AQPs) play an important role in metabolic regulation of glucose andlipids in human adipocytes. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Plant major intrinsic proteins. Identification and characterization of novel water channel-like protiens

    Författare :Sofia Gustavsson; Biokemi och Strukturbiologi; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Växtbiokemi; Plant biochemistry; GIP; SIP; GUS; immunolabelling; aquaporin; aquaglyceroporin;

    Sammanfattning : The Major Intrinsic Proteins, MIPs, constitute a large, ancient superfamily of membrane proteins that are found in all kingdoms of life. Most MIPs facilitate passive diffusion of water across biological membranes (aquaporins), although many channels are also permeable for glycerol and other small uncharged solutes, (aquaglyceroporins).

  5. 4. The Aquaporins - Expression and Regulation of Water Channel Proteins

    Författare :Maria Karlsson; Biokemi och Strukturbiologi; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Plant biochemistry; immunocytochemistry; overexpression; phosphorylation; aquaporin; water channel; Växtbiokemi; Chemistry; Kemi;

    Sammanfattning : Aquaporins are integral membrane proteins that function as water channels highly specific for water or as aquaglyceroporins permeable to water as well as small solutes such as glycerol and urea. The model plant Arabidopsis thaliana has 35 genes encoding aquaporin proteins. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Protein-Protein Interactions in Human Aquaporin Regulation

    Författare :Jennifer Virginia Roche; Biokemi och Strukturbiologi; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Membrane proteins; Human Aquaporins; water channels; Protein-protein interaction; Regulation; AQP2; AQP0; LIP5; CaM;

    Sammanfattning : Water is an essential compoment of every living orgamism and forms a major part of the human body. Regulated water transport is crucial for proper cell functioning and body homeostasis. LÄS MER
