Overview
- Product nameAnti-Aquaporin 2 antibodySee all Aquaporin 2 primary antibodies ...
- DescriptionRabbit polyclonal to Aquaporin 2
- Tested applicationsWB, IHC-P, ELISA more details
- Species reactivityReacts with: Rat, Human
Predicted to work with: Mouse - Immunogen
A 15 aa C terminal peptide from rat AQP2.
- Positive controlRat and human kidney cortex, apical membranes, inner and outer medulla (postranslational or glycosylation).
- General notesIn kidneys the AQP2 protein is mainly expressed in collecting ducts, which plays an important role in determining the final urinary output of water and solutes. The tissue section of this part will be a good positive control.

Target
- FunctionForms a water-specific channel that provides the plasma membranes of renal collecting duct with high permeability to water, thereby permitting water to move in the direction of an osmotic gradient.
- Tissue specificityExpressed in renal collecting tubules.
- Involvement in diseaseDefects in AQP2 are the cause of diabetes insipidus nephrogenic autosomal (ANDI) [MIM:125800]; also known as diabetes insipidus nephrogenic type 2. ANDI is caused by the inability of the renal collecting ducts to absorb water in response to arginine vasopressin. It is characterized by excessive water drinking (polydypsia), excessive urine excretion (polyuria), persistent hypotonic urine, and hypokalemia. Inheritance can be autosomal dominant or recessive.
- Sequence similaritiesBelongs to the MIP/aquaporin (TC 1.A.8) family.
- DomainAquaporins contain two tandem repeats each containing three membrane-spanning domains and a pore-forming loop with the signature motif Asn-Pro-Ala (NPA).
- Post-translational
modificationsSer-256 phosphorylation is necessary and sufficient for expression at the apical membrane. Endocytosis is not phosphorylation-dependent. - Cellular localizationApical cell membrane. Cytoplasmic vesicle membrane. Shuttles from vesicles to the apical membrane.

Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Aquaporin 2 antibody (ab15081)This image is courtesy of an anonymous Abreviewab15081 staining Aquaporin 2 in rat kidney tissue section by IHC(P). Tissue underwent fixation in formalin, embedded in paraffin, heat mediated antigen retrieval in 10mM EDTA buffer pH 8.0 and blocking in 5% serum for 20 minutes at 20°C. The primary antibody, diluted 1/300 in TBSTween and incubated with sample for 1 hour at 20°C. A HRP conjugated goat polyclonal to rabbit was used undiluted as the secondary.
