ABSTRACT:
A transmembrane water channel protein is isolated in highly purified form from human erythrocytes. An identical protein is also found in kidney tubules. cDNA encoding this protein has been isolated and its amino acid sequence determined. cDNA encoding a transmembrane water channel protein has also been obtained from salivary gland, and an identical protein is found in lacrimal gland, cornea, and lung tissue. The amino acid sequence of the protein has been deduced from the cDNA, and the protein has been designated Aquaporin-5. Using the nucleic acid or protein sequence provided herein, the protein may be produced by recombinant DNA techniques. Expression of the protein may be determined by either immunoassay or in situ hybridization assay.
