AQP9 - aquaporin 9 Gene
Also Known as SSC1; AQP-9; T17287; HsT17287
Species: Homo sapiens
About AQP9
This gene has 4 transcripts (splice variants), 298 orthologues and 11 paralogues. Biased expression in liver (RPKM 174.7), appendix (RPKM 48.0) and 3 other tissues.
Summary
The aquaporins are a family of water-selective membrane channels. This gene encodes a member of a subset of aquaporins called the aquaglyceroporins. This protein allows passage of a broad range of noncharged solutes and also stimulates urea transport and osmotic water permeability. This protein may also facilitate the uptake of glycerol in hepatic tissue . The encoded protein may also play a role in specialized leukocyte functions such as immunological response and bactericidal activity. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
