Water 146-151 Aquaporin-like superfamily protein Arabidopsis thaliana 64-68 7846153-5 1994 To find out if RD28 is a water channel protein, rd28 cRNA was injected into Xenopus laevis oocytes. Water 25-30 Aquaporin-like superfamily protein Arabidopsis thaliana 15-19 7846153-6 1994 Expression of RD28 caused a 10- to 15-fold increase in the osmotic water permeability of the oocytes, indicating that the protein creates water channels in the plasma membrane of the oocytes and is an aquaporin just like its homology gamma-TIP. Water 67-72 Aquaporin-like superfamily protein Arabidopsis thaliana 14-18 7846153-6 1994 Expression of RD28 caused a 10- to 15-fold increase in the osmotic water permeability of the oocytes, indicating that the protein creates water channels in the plasma membrane of the oocytes and is an aquaporin just like its homology gamma-TIP. Water 138-143 Aquaporin-like superfamily protein Arabidopsis thaliana 14-18 7846153-7 1994 Although RD28 has several cysteine residues, its activity is not inhibited by mercury, and in this respect it differs from gamma-TIP and all but one of the mammalian water channels that have been described.
