摘要：
The electron crystallographic structure of the aquaporin-1 water channel, determined at similar to 6 Angstrom, reveals that the protein has six transmembrane alpha-helices forming a trapezoid-like cylinder. There is a branched rod-like structure within the cylinder that traverses the membrane and likely contains at least one alpha-helix.
