Textbook Question
Chapter 7.2, Problem 3CC
MAKE CONNECTIONS Ø Aquaporins exclude passage of hydronium ions (H3O+), but some aquaporins allow passage of glycerol, a three-carbon alcohol (see Figure 5.9), as well as H2O. Since H3O+ is closer in size to water than glycerol is, yet cannot pass through, what might be the basis of this selectivity?
