About This Section
| Entrez Gene summary for AQP6: The protein encoded by this gene is an aquaporin protein, which functions as a water channel in cells. Aquaporins are afamily of small integral membrane proteins related to the major intrinsic protein (MIP or AQP0). This protein isspecific for the kidney. This gene and related family members AQP0, AQP2, and AQP5 reside in a cluster on chromosome12q13. (provided by RefSeq) UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: AQP6_HUMAN, Q13520Function: Forms a water-specific channel that participates in distinct physiological functions such as glomerularfiltration, tubular endocytosis and acid-base metabolism (By similarity)
