1. Abstract
Aldosterone, a principle hormone controlling salt and water balance in vertebrates, acts by altering the expression of defined proteins in transporting epithelial cells. While several aldosterone-induced proteins have been identified, the mechanism of hormone action as well as the key, rate-limiting steps involved in the pathway remain unknown.
