Biochemical and biophysical studies have shown that the strictly water-permeable aquaporins have a tetrameric structure, whereas results concerning the oligomeric state of GlpF, the glycerol facilitator of Escherichia coli, are dependent upon the analytical technique used. Here, we analyzed the oligomerization of the AQP3 aquaglyceroporin, which presents a mixed selectivity for water, glycerol, and urea. At first, based on transcript detection by reverse transcription-PCR from human erythroid tissues and membrane expression detected by flow cytometry analysis, we demonstrated that AQP3 is expressed on human and rat but not on mouse red blood cells. Then, the quaternary structure of AQP3 was determined using as models human red blood cell membranes, which carry both AQP1 and AQP3, and two heterologous expression systems:Xenopus laevis oocyte, for density and size estimation of aquaporins, and Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast, which expressed a non-glycosylated form of AQP3. By velocity sedimentation in sucrose gradient after non-denaturing detergent solubilization, AQP3 was essentially found as mono- and dimeric species in conditions under which AQP1 preserved its tetrameric structure. Freeze-fracture studies on oocyte plasma membranes gave a size of AQP3 particles in favor of a dimeric or trimeric structure. Finally, by cross-linking experiments with red blood cell membranes, AQP3 is visible as different oligomeric structures, including a tetrameric one.
