Protein name Aquaporin-2 (AQP-2) (ADH water channel) (Aquaporin-CD) (AQP-CD) (Collecting duct water channel protein) (WCH-CD) (Water channel protein for renal collecting duct)
Protein function Forms a water-specific channel that provides the plasma membranes of renal collecting duct with high permeability to water, thereby permitting water to move in the direction of an osmotic gradient (PubMed:15509592, PubMed:7510718, PubMed:7524315
