About Aqp3

Summary

Enables glycerol channel activity and water channel activity. Involved in glycerol transport and water transport. Located in basolateral plasma membrane. Biomarker of brain ischemia and hypothyroidism. Orthologous to human AQP3 (Aquaporin 3 (Gill blood group)). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
