@IITHyderabad@BhartiDpuram Why does this matter?
Glycerol is essential for lipid synthesis, energy storage and osmotic balance. Understanding how hAQP10 regulates its movement could help researchers investigate aquaporin dysfunction and its links to metabolic diseases and skin disorders.
Researchers at @IITHyderabad used a computational microscope to study how human aquaporin-10 (hAQP10) transports water and glycerol across cell membranes, revealing how this tiny channel selectively regulates molecular traffic.

About the image: Recent research has uncovered how a nanoscale membrane protein transports water and glycerol between a cell and its environment. Using computational tools, researchers identified checkpoints that regulate this traffic, helping maintain osmotic balance and lipid metabolism. Image Credit: Molecular Simulation Lab, IITH
The original article was published in SciComm @IITHyderabad, the science communication webpage of IIT Hyderabad. You can also watch a short video explainer here.
Water and glycerol may use the same channel, but they face very different journeys.
Simulations showed that glycerol interacts with amino acids at narrow checkpoints and must reorient itself to pass through. It remains in the channel about 100 times longer than water, which moves through with much lower energetic resistance.
Glimpses from a practical, peer-learning opportunity for researchers considering applying to the upcoming PMECRG call by @ANRFIndia. Researchers spoke on howΒ to write an effective grant proposal and participants discussed their own research ideasΒ with mentors in small groups.
