Specificity

Water is a critical component of all living cells. Interestingly, tissue membranes show a great degree of water permeability. Mammalian red cells, renal proximal tubules, and descending thin limb of Henle are extraordinarily permeable to water. Water crosses hydrophobic plasma membranes either by simple diffusion or through a facilitative transport mechanism mediated by special protein "aquaporin". Over the last decade, genes for several members of aquaporin family have been cloned, expressed, and their distribution studied in many tissues. Aquaporin-0 or MIP26 (major intrinsic protein 26 kDa), and Aquaporin-1 (purified from red cells) also called CHIP-28 (channel forming integral protein, 28 kDa; 268 AA; gene locus 7p14) has been the foundation of the growing family of aquaporins. The lens specific Aquaporin-0 represents up to 80% of total lens membrane protein. Defects in MIP26 are a cause of autosomal dominant cataract. The cataract Fraser mutation (CAT-FR or Shriveled) is a transposon-induced splicing error that substitutes a long terminal repeat sequence for the c-terminus of MIP. The lens opacity mutation (LOP) is an AA substitution that inhibits targeting of MIP to the cell membrane. Human Aquaporin-0 is a 263 amino acid transmembrane protein belonging to the MIP family. Aquaporin families of proteins are predicted to contain six transmembrane domains. The N and C-terminus are predicted to be cytoplasmic.

Immunogen

A 17 AA synthetic peptide within the carboxy terminal domain of human Aquaporin-0 (Shiels et al. 1988; Kent et al. 1990; Pisano et al. 1991; Shiels et al. 1996) was selected for antibody production. This domain is predicted to be cytoplasmic.

Application

Detect Aquaporin 0 using this Anti-Aquaporin 0 Antibody validated for use in ELISA & WB.
We recommend the use of 0.5-1% milk in all primary/secondary dilutions in order to suppress non-specific bands.

Western blot: 1-10 μg/mL using Chemiluminescence technique

ELISA: 0.5-1.0 μg/mL

Optimal working dilutions must be determined by end user.

Ephrin type-A receptor 2 (EPHA2) and one of its ligands, ephrin-A5 (EFNA5), have been associated with loss of eye lens transparency, or cataract, - an important cause of visual impairment. Here we show that mice functionally lacking EPHA2 (Epha2-null), EFNA5

We report analysis of the ocular lens phenotype of the recessive, larval lethal zebrafish mutant, lama1 (a69/a69). Previous work revealed that this mutant has a shortened body axis and eye defects including a defective hyaloid vasculature, focal corneal dysplasia, and

Previous research showed that the absence of β1-integrin from the mouse lens after embryonic day (E) 13.5 (β1MLR10) leads to the perinatal apoptosis of lens epithelial cells (LECs) resulting in severe microphthalmia. This study focuses on elucidating the molecular connections

Major intrinsic protein (MIP) is a functional water-channel (AQP0) that also plays a key role in establishing lens fiber cell architecture. Genetic variants of MIP have been associated with inherited and age-related forms of cataract; however, the underlying pathogenic mechanisms

Major intrinsic protein or aquaporin-0 (MIP/AQP0) functions as a water channel and a cell-junction molecule in the vertebrate eye lens. Loss of MIP function in the lens leads to degraded optical quality and cataract formation by pathogenic mechanisms that are
