About Aqp2

Summary

Enables PDZ domain binding activity; actin binding activity; and water transmembrane transporter activity. Involved in several processes, including actin filament depolymerization; cellular response to water deprivation; and response to glucagon. Located in several cellular components, including basolateral plasma membrane; cytoplasmic vesicle; and trans-Golgi network. Part of protein-containing complex. Used to study diabetes insipidus. Biomarker of hypertension and nephrogenic diabetes insipidus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in nephrogenic diabetes insipidus. Orthologous to human AQP2 (Aquaporin 2).
