Human adipose glycerol flux is regulated by a pH gate in AQP10

Uptake and release of glycerol from the small intestine and adipocytes is facilitated by a subclass of aquaporins (AQP), but how glycerol flow is regulated remains poorly understood. Here authors solve the crystal structure of AQP10 and show how lipolysis is coupled to AQP10 regulation in
