GeneID: 11829 Mouse AQP4

GeneID: 25293 Rat AQP4

GeneID: 361 Human AQP4

Gene Symbol Aqp4
Gene Full Name aquaporin 4
Background This gene encodes a member of the aquaporin family of intrinsic membrane proteins that function as water-selective channels in the plasma membranes of many cells. The encoded protein is the predominant aquaporin found in brain. Two alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Function Forms a water-specific channel. Osmoreceptor which regulates body water balance and mediates water flow within the central nervous system. [UniProt]
Cellular Localization Membrane
Calculated MW 35 kDa (unmodified); 50 kDa (glycosylated)
PTM Phosphorylation by PKC at Ser-180 reduces conductance by 50%. Phosphorylation by PKG at Ser-111 in response to glutamats increases conductance by 40% (By similarity).
