Protein
Aquaporin PIP1-2
Organism
Arabidopsis thaliana
Length
286 amino acids
Function
Water channel required to facilitate the transport of water across cell membrane. Essential for the water permeability of the plasma membrane and for the morphology of the root system. Its function is impaired by Hg(2+). Inhibited by cytosolic acidosis which occurs during anoxia in roots.
Similarity
Belongs to the MIP/aquaporin (TC 1.A.8) family. PIP (TC 1.A.8.11) subfamily.
