Aquaporins
What are Aquaporins? How many organisms have them? Why are they important? Who discovered them?

Aquaporins
There are at least 12 Aquaporin proteins present in the human body.
Mutations in some lead to disease. Some are essential for numerous body functions. Without them, we would die of dehydration.

What do they look like?
Constructed of 6 alpha-helices in a right hand configuration
Form tetramers, each acts as a monomer.

How do they work?

What is my project?
Comparing the Aquaporin and Aquaporin like genes in the human genome.
20 sequences found 16 used for phylogeny tree once reduced

Purpose of the Project?
To possibly find the gene that gave rise to the numerous Aquaporin like genes found today.
A better understanding of Aquaporin genes could lead to effective treatments for diseases related to their mutations.
Understanding the similarities and differences in Aquaporins provides a better understanding of cellular function and specialization.
