1 Using oocytes, externally applied TEA blocked AQP1/AQP2/AQP4 with IC50 values of 1.4, 6.2, and 9.8 microM, respectively. Tetraethylammonium aquaporin 1 (Colton blood group) Homo sapiens
2 TEA inhibition was lost upon a Tyr to Phe amino acid switch in the external water pore of AQP1/AQP2/AQP4, whereas the water permeability of AQP3 and AQP5, which lack a corresponding Tyr, was not blocked by TEA. Tetraethylammonium aquaporin 1 (Colton blood group) Homo sapiens
3 TEA inhibition was lost upon a Tyr to Phe amino acid switch in the external water pore of AQP1/AQP2/AQP4, whereas the water permeability of AQP3 and AQP5, which lack a corresponding Tyr, was not blocked by TEA. Tetraethylammonium aquaporin 1 (Colton blood group) Homo sapiens
4 Consistent with experimental data, multi-nanosecond molecular dynamics simulations showed one stable binding site for TEA, but not tetramethyl (TMA), in AQP1, resulting in a nearly 50% water permeability inhibition, which was reduced in AQP1-Y186F due to effects on the TEA inhibitory binding region. Tetraethylammonium aquaporin 1 (Colton blood group) Homo sapiens
5 Consistent with experimental data, multi-nanosecond molecular dynamics simulations showed one stable binding site for TEA, but not tetramethyl (TMA), in AQP1, resulting in a nearly 50% water permeability inhibition, which was reduced in AQP1-Y186F due to effects on the TEA inhibitory binding region. Tetraethylammonium aquaporin 1 (Colton blood group) Homo sapiens

Tetraethylammonium aquaporin 1 (Colton blood group) Homo sapiens
7 The loss of TEA inhibition in oocytes expressing properly folded AQP1-N42A or -T44A is in line with the computationally predicted binding mode. Tetraethylammonium aquaporin 1 (Colton blood group) Homo sapiens
8 Our data reveal that the molecular interaction of TEA with AQP1 differs and is about 1000-fold more effective on AQPs than on potassium channels. Tetraethylammonium aquaporin 1 (Colton blood group) Homo sapiens
