Recombinant Human AQP4 protein, GST-tagged

• Cat.No.: AQP4-734H
• Product Overview: Human AQP4 full-length ORF (AAH22286.1, 1 a.a. - 323 a.a.) recombinant protein with GST-tag at N-terminal.

Specification

• Species: Human
• Source: Wheat Germ
• Tag: GST
• Description: This gene encodes a member of the aquaporin family of intrinsic membrane proteins that function as water-selective channels in the plasma membranes of many cells. This protein is the predominant aquaporin found in brain and has an important role in brain water homeostasis. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene. A recent study provided evidence for translational readthrough in this gene and expression of an additional C-terminally extended isoform via the use of an alternative in-frame translation termination codon.
