Function | Aquaporins form homotetrameric transmembrane channels, with each monomer independently mediating water transport across the plasma membrane along its osmotic gradient (PubMed:18768791, PubMed:8621489). Plays an important role in fluid secretion in salivary glands (By similarity). Required for TRPV4 activation by hypotonicity. Together with TRPV4, controls regulatory volume decrease in salivary epithelial cells (PubMed:16571723). Seems to play a redundant role in water transport in the eye, lung and in sweat glands (By similarity). |
Cellular Location | Apical cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Cytoplasmic vesicle membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein Note=Hypotonicity increases location at the cell membrane Phosphorylation decreases location at the cell membrane |
Tissue Location | Detected in skin eccrine sweat glands, at the apical cell membrane and at intercellular canaliculi (at protein level). |
