Aquaporin-2 (AQP2) is one of the membrane water channel proteins expressed in principal cells of the kidney collecting ducts. In the basal state, AQP2 resides in the storage vesicles localized in the subapical cytoplasm. Upon stimulation with vasopressin, AQP2 is translocated to the apical plasma me...
