Aquaporins facilitate the passive transport of water, solutes, or ions across biological
membranes. They are implicated in diverse pathologies including brain edema following …

The aquaporins (AQPs) are a family of small, integral membrane proteins that facilitate water

There is strong evidence that aquaporins are central components in plant water relations.
Plant species possess more aquaporin genes than species from other kingdoms. According …

Aquaporins (AQPs) are water channel proteins that are essential to life, being expressed in
all kingdoms. In humans, there are 13 AQPs, at least one of which is found in every organ …

The aquaporins (AQPs) are a family of small integral membrane proteins that facilitate the
bidirectional transport of water across biological membranes in response to osmotic …

Na+ uptake by plant roots has largely been explored using species that accumulate little
Na+ into their shoots. By way of contrast, the halophyte Suaeda maritima accumulates …
