AQP10 - Aquaporin-10
Order number: 71171
Description
We are excited to introduce our off-the-shelf, full-length, active, and native Aquaporin-10, commonly known as AQP10. AQP10 is an homotetrameric transmembrane channels, with each monomer independently mediating glycerol and water transport across the plasma membrane along their osmotic gradient.
Our AQP10 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.

| Function | Aquaglyceroporins form homotetrameric transmembrane channels, with each monomer independently mediating glycerol and water transport across the plasma membrane along their osmotic gradient. Could also be permeable to urea. Among aquaglyceroporins, it exhibits a unique pH-gated glycerol transport activity, being more active at acidic pH. It most likely plays a central role in the efflux of glycerol formed during triglyceride hydrolysis in adipocytes and in glycerol uptake by enterocytes, as both processes occur and are stimulated at acidic pH. |
