Aquaporins are membrane channels that facilitate the transport of water and small neutral
molecules across biological membranes of most living organisms. In plants, aquaporins …

Aquaporins (AQPs) are universal membrane integrated water channel proteins that
selectively and reversibly facilitate the movement of water, gases, metalloids, and other …

The family of aquaporins, also called water channels or major intrinsic proteins, is
characterized by six transmembrane domains that together facilitate the transport of water …

Aquaporins are channel proteins that function to increase the permeability of biological
membranes. In plants, aquaporins are encoded by multigene families that have undergone …

Stomata are micropores on the leaf epidermis that allow carbon dioxide (CO2) uptake for
photosynthesis at the expense of water loss through transpiration. Stomata coordinate the …
