Description

We are excited to introduce our off-the-shelf, full-length, active, and native Aquaporin-8, commonly known as AQP8. AQP8 is an Channel that allows the facilitated permeation of water and uncharged molecules, such as hydrogen peroxide and the neutral form of ammonia (NH3), through cellular membranes such as plasma membrane, inner mitochondrial membrane and endoplasmic reticulum membrane of several tissues.
Our AQP8 protein has been solubilized and stabilized using our NativeMP™ platform, ensuring it retains its native structure and full biological activity, making it ideal for various research applications.

Applications:

  • Screening/Validation
  • Biologics Development
  • Structure Determination
  • Small Molecule Drug Development

The protein delivered can be used for these specific applications. When ordering, please indicate which applications you intend to use the protein for in the contact form to ensure the best results.

For more details, explore our solubilization database.

copolymer vs detergents workflow
Fig. 1: Detergents create environments that lack native lipids, which can compromise protein function and stability. Copolymers, enable you to see and analyze these aspects within a native environment. They facilitate studying how your target interacts with its surrounding lipids, and allow assays to be conducted at body temperature.

Datasheets

Upon ordering, you will receive the corresponding datasheets and the Certificate of Analysis (CoA).

FunctionChannel that allows the facilitated permeation of water and uncharged molecules, such as hydrogen peroxide and the neutral form of ammonia (NH3), through cellular membranes such as plasma membrane, inner mitochondrial membrane and endoplasmic reticulum membrane of several tissues. The transport of the ammonia neutral form induces a parallel transport of proton, at alkaline pH when the concentration of ammonia is high (By similarity). However, it is unclear whether the transport of proton takes place via the aquaporin or via an endogenous pathway (By similarity). Also, may transport ammonia analogs such as formamide and methylamine, a transport favourited at basic pH due to the increase of unprotonated (neutral) form, which is expected to favor diffusion.
