Biological background
Protein function (datasheet): Water channel required to promote glycerol permeability and water transport across cell membranes. May contribute to water transport in the upper portion of small intestine. Isoform 2 is not permeable to urea and glycerol. .
Scientific background (datasheet): AQP10 was identified in human small intestine. This gene encoded a 264-amino-acid protein with high sequence identity with AQP3 (53%), 9 (52%), and 7 (43%). These AQPs constitute one subfamily of AQP family that is differentiated from the other subfamily of AQP (AQP0, 1, 2, 4, 5, 6, and 8) by sequence homology. Northern blot analysis revealed expression of a 2.3-kb AQP10 transcript in jejunum but not liver. RNase protection analysis detected nearly exclusive expression in duodenum and jejunum. In situ hybridization analysis demonstrated highest expression of AQP10 in absorptive epithelial cells at the tips of villi in the jejunum. SDS-PAGE analysis showed expression of a 28-kD AQP10 protein, similar to its predicted size as well as to that of the other AQPs. Functional analysis indicated that cells expressing AQP10 are permeable to relatively low amounts of water, but, unlike AQP3, AQP7, and AQP9, are not permeable to urea or glycerol.
Cellular localization (datasheet): Membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
Tissue details (datasheet): Expressed exclusively in duodenum and jejunum. Highest expression in absorptive epithelial cells at the tips of villi in the jejunum.
Research relevance and current trends
- Commonly studied in contexts related to Cancer,Channels,Metabolism,Plasma Membrane,Signal Transduction.
- Supports comparative expression analysis across conditions, genotypes, or treatments when paired with appropriate controls.
- Useful for confirming target presence and subcellular distribution using orthogonal readouts (e.g., microscopy vs. immunoblotting).
Common research applications
- Western blot (WB): Compare relative target abundance and apparent size/isoforms across samples; interpret bands in light of expected MW and potential PTMs.
- ELISA: Measure target abundance in compatible matrices using a standard-curve readout; ensure dilution linearity and appropriate controls.
- Immunohistochemistry (IHC): Assess tissue distribution and cell-type patterns; interpret staining with appropriate negative controls and antigen context.
- Flow cytometry: Quantify target-positive populations in single-cell suspensions; pair with viability and isotype/FMO controls conceptually.
Notes for experimental interpretation
- Consider isoforms, post-translational modifications, and processing that can shift apparent molecular weight or localization.
- Cross-reactivity (datasheet): No cross-reactivity with other proteins
- Use appropriate positive and negative controls (e.g., KO/KD, blocking peptide, or isotype controls) to support specificity interpretation.
As a polyclonal antibody, this reagent may recognize multiple epitopes on the target, which can improve detection robustness but may require careful specificity controls.
