Aquaporin 1

Aquaporin 1 forms a water-specific channel that is constitutively expressed at the PLASMA MEMBRANE of ERYTHROCYTES and KIDNEY TUBULES, PROXIMAL. It provides these cells with a high permeability to WATER. In humans polymorphisms of this protein result in the Colton blood group antigen.

AQP-CHIP Protein; AQP1 Protein; Aquaporin 1 Protein; Aquaporin-CHIP; CHIP28 Protein; Channel-Forming Integral Membrane Protein Of 28 kDa; AQP CHIP Protein; Aquaporin CHIP; Channel Forming Integral Membrane Protein Of 28 kDa
