How water permeates cellular membranes and what this means for cell functioning and several diseases are now emerging from the study of the aquaporins (AQPs), the water channel family. A combination of sequence analysis, three-dimensional structure determination, and physiology of the AQP family proteins provides a glimpse into the workings of water channels.
