Function

Forms a water channel that facilitates the transport of water across cell membranes, playing a crucial role in water homeostasis in various tissues (PubMed:1373524, PubMed:23219802). Could also be permeable to small solutes including hydrogen peroxide, glycerol and gases such as amonnia (NH3), nitric oxide (NO) and carbon dioxide (CO2) (PubMed:16682607, PubMed:17012249, PubMed:19273840, PubMed:33028705, PubMed:8584435). Recruited to the ankyrin-1 complex, a multiprotein complex of the erythrocyte membrane, it could be part of a CO2 metabolon, linking facilitated diffusion of CO2 across the membrane, anion exchange of Cl(-)/HCO3(-) and interconversion of dissolved CO2 and carbonic acid in the cytosol (PubMed:17012249, PubMed:35835865). In vitro, it shows non-selective gated cation channel activity and may be permeable to cations like K(+) and Na(+) in vivo (PubMed:36949749, PubMed:8703053).

Activity summary

Aquaporin 1 also known as Aquaporin-1 AQP-1 or AQP1 is a protein that functions as a water channel facilitating the transport of water across cell membranes. 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.

Biological function summary

Aquaporin 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.

Pathways

The 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.

Associated diseases and disorders

Aquaporin 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.

    Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-Aquaporin 1 antibody (ab65837)

    AQP1 was detected in a paraffin-embedded section of human liver cancer tissue. Heat mediated antigen retrieval was performed in EDTA buffer (pH 8.0, epitope retrieval solution). The tissue section was blocked with 10% goat serum. The tissue section was then incubated with 2 µg/ml ab65837 overnight at 4°C. Peroxidase Conjugated Goat Anti-rabbit IgG was used as secondary antibody and incubated for 30 minutes at 37°C. The tissue section was developed using HRP Conjugated Rabbit IgG Super Vision Assay Kit with DAB as the chromogen.

    Electrophoresis was performed on a 5-20% SDS-PAGE gel at 70V (Stacking gel) / 90V (Resolving gel) for 2-3 hours. 
    After electrophoresis, proteins were transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane at 150 mA for 50-90 minutes. Blocked the membrane with 5% non-fat milk/TBS for 1.5 hour at RT. The membrane was incubated with ab65837 at 0.5 µg/mL overnight at 4°C, then washed with TBS-0.1% Tween 3 times with 5 minutes each and probed with a goat anti-rabbit IgG-HRP secondary antibody at a dilution of 1/5000 for 1.5 hour at RT. The signal is developed using an Enhanced Chemiluminescent detection (ECL) kit with Tanon 5200 system. A specific band was detected for AQP1 at approximately 29 kDa. The expected band size for Aquaporin 1 is at 29 kDa.
