title: Functional expression of the human CHIP28 water channel in a yeast secretory mutant.
abstract: The temperature-sensitive Saccharomyces cerevisiae mutant strain NY17, deficient in the secretory pathway (sec6-4 mutation), is used for the heterologous expression of the human CHIP28 water channel. After a heat-shock, the protein is present in partially purified post-golgi secretory vesicles. Immunodetection and water transport studies, directly made on the vesicles, showed that CHIP28 is highly expressed and active in the yeast membranes.
