Scientific Background: Aquaporins selectively conduct water molecules in and out of the cell, while preventing the passage of ions and other solutes. Known as water channels, they are integral membrane pore proteins (1, 2). Aquaporin 2 is the vasopressin-regulated water channel of the apical membrane of collecting duct cells. It is located in kidney epithelial cells and usually lies dormant in intracellular vesicle membranes. When it is needed vasopressin binds to the cell surface vasopressin receptor, activating a signaling pathway that cause AQP2 containing vesicles to fuse with the plasma membrane so the AQP2 can be used by the cell (3). Defects in AQP2 area cause of an autosomal dominant form of nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI) (4).
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
water channel protein involved in water reabsorption and vasopressin regulation in kidney collecting duct cells; mutation is linked to nephrogenic diabetes insipidous (NDI) [RGD, Feb 2006]
Uniprot Description
AQP2: Forms 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. Expressed in renal collecting tubules. Belongs to the MIP/aquaporin (TC 1.A.8) family.

Product Notes
The Aqp2 aqp2 (Catalog #AAA805695) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Aquaporin 2 Antibody reacts with Human, Mouse, Rat and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's Aquaporin 2 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB), Immunofluorescence (IF). 1:1000-4000 (WB), 1:400 (IF). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the Aqp2 aqp2 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Aquaporin 2, Polyclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
