Proposed merger with 'Aquaporins' article

As far as I can tell, these articles are about the same group of proteins found in the cell membrane. They both contain different information on the same tyopic, and so i suggest that they should be merged. -Snellios 22:26, 21 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The artcles have now been merged, and a clean-up is required. Snellios 16:45, 24 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

most of this information is stolen

half of this article copies www.answers.com/topic/aquaporin and does not cite it....

No, Answers.com displays information from wikipedia, it even says near the top of the page "Home > Library > Reference > Wikipedia" Murdochious 17:21, 5 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

There are hidden vandalism

Somebody has been replacing the original texts by related articles. This makes the information that appears to the reader unrelated to the topic and weird, but true, and makes very difficult to detect vandalism.

The IP of the vandal is 72.73.52.114 and if you check his history, he has destroyed also other pages. I don't know how to block his IP. If somebody knows, would be good to do it.

Pictures

More pictures would be useful! Myrmeleon formicarius 00:40, 29 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

PyMOL image is an 'incorrect' portrayal

The PyMOL image is 'upside down.' It is kind of arbitrary if you are knowledgeable regarding the tetramer organization in the membrane, otherwise it may be misleading. Usually when portraying proteins in a side view, the 'top' should signify the extracellular space and the 'bottom' the cytoplasmic/intracellular space. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.149.162.144 (talk) 12:17, 10 April 2007 (UTC).[reply]

NPA motif and proton blockage

I updated the section on the NPA motif which was outdated and which reflected only the view of a part of the aquaporin community. In particular, the interpretation that the "bipolar" water orientation causes proton blockage is now expressed as one of several opinions. In fact, there are several studies published (I know of four) which highly question this early interpretation. In addition I added the reference to the first paper which reported the rotation of water molecules. --Hanuta3001 (talk) 15:34, 26 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Applications to Water Purification

Should add a section about water purification systems that incorporate aquaporins Aquaporin company: http://www.aquaporin.dk/ (say by 2013 they will commercially available)

There are lots of papers on the subject too, e.g. ^[1] CrocodilesAreForWimps (talk) 03:28, 1 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Assessment comment

The comment(s) below were originally left at Talk:Aquaporin/Comments, and are posted here for posterity. Following several discussions in past years, these subpages are now deprecated. The comments may be irrelevant or outdated; if so, please feel free to remove this section.

This article is the result of a recent merger between two older articles. As a result, it is basically just two articles on one page. Needs a full going-over. – Clockwork Soul 21:40, 2 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Who's Solomon?

The History section has a sentence, that starts "Solomon and his co-workers performed pioneering work", but there's no previous mention of Solomon. There are a couple of footnotes to AK Solomon, but I think Solomon needs more introduction in the body. ChrisHibbert (talk) 18:12, 28 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
