Mechanism of selectivity in aquaporins and aquaglyceroporins

Aquaporins and aquaglyceroporins form a family of pore proteins that facilitate the efficient and selective flux of small solutes across biological membranes. We studied the selectivity of aquaporin-1 (AQP1) and the bacterial glycerol facilitator, GlpF, for O₂, CO₂, NH₃, glycerol, urea, and water. U...
