Summary
Aquaporins are
Integral Membrane Proteins
that facilitate the
Transport of water
and, in some cases,
Small solutes
across
Cell Membranes
, playing a crucial role in maintaining
Water Homeostasis
in
Living Organisms
. Their
Selective Permeability
and regulation are essential for processes such as
Urine Concentration
in the kidneys,
Water Retention
in plants, and the regulation of
Cerebrospinal Fluid
.
