Identification
Name: Aquaporin Z
Synonyms:
  • Bacterial nodulin-like intrinsic protein
Gene Name: aqpZ
Enzyme Class: Not Available
Biological Properties
General Function: Involved in transporter activity
Specific Function: Channel that permits osmotically driven movement of water in both directions. It is involved in the osmoregulation and in the maintenance of cell turgor during volume expansion in rapidly growing cells. It mediates rapid entry or exit of water in response to abrupt changes in osmolarity
Cellular Location: Cell inner membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein
