aqpZ1

Gene
aqpZ1
Protein
Aquaporin Z 1
Organism
Agrobacterium fabrum (strain C58 / ATCC 33970)
Length
241 amino acids
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 (By similarity).
Similarity
Belongs to the MIP/aquaporin (TC 1.A.8) family.
Mass
24.544 kDa
