This protein plays an important role in maintaining water homeostasis within cells. Aquaporin 1 has a mass of approximately 28 kDa and is encoded by the AQP1 gene. It is expressed in various tissues and organs including the kidneys lungs and red blood cells indicating its importance in diverse physiological processes.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nAquaporin 1 is not part of a complex but independently contributes to maintaining osmotic balance and fluid movement across epithelial and endothelial tissues. The protein's selective permeability for water without allowing ions or other solutes highlights its specificity in controlling water transport which is essential for maintaining cellular environment stability.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nThe aquaporin protein is involved in key biological pathways such as the osmoregulatory pathway and the fluid secretion pathway. It maintains efficient water transport in processes like urine concentration in the kidneys and fluid regulation in the pulmonary system. Aquaporins in general are related to similar transport proteins like sodium channels which together play an important role in maintaining osmotic balance across various tissues.\u003cbr\u003e\nAquaporin 1's dysfunction has been associated with conditions such as nephrogenic diabetes insipidus and pulmonary edema. These are linked to its role in water reabsorption in the kidneys and fluid balance in the lungs. The disorder's connection ties Aquaporin-1 with other regulatory proteins such as vasopressin receptors which work in conjunction to control renal water reabsorption and response to fluid imbalance.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46855690748073,"sku":"ab15080","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/abcam-ab15080","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
