Plant Aquaporins: genome-wide identification, transcriptomics, proteomics, and advanced analytical tools
Aquaporins (AQPs) are channel-forming integral membrane proteins that facilitate the movement of water and many other small molecules. Compared to animals, plants contain a much higher number of AQPs in their genome. Homology-based identification of AQPs in sequenced species is feasible because of t...
