Values shown correspond to background-subtracted data, that is, data obtained in AQP-expressing oocytes − data obtained in water-injected oocytes. In the expression experiments, background-subtracted data were divided further by the quantity of channels present at the surface of AQP1- or AQP10-expressing oocytes. For all of the mutants, data are expressed as means ± SE of 3–10 oocytes among three to six experiments.
Data are significantly different statistically (P < 0.05) compared with AQP1-expressing oocytes.
Data are significantly different statistically (P < 0.05) compared with AQP10-expressing oocytes.
