Entrez ID 366
Gene name Aquaporin 9
Gene symbol AQP9
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
AQP-9HsT17287SSC1T17287
Chromosome 15
Chromosome location 15q21.3
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

Protein name Aquaporin-9 (AQP-9) (Aquaglyceroporin-9) (Small solute channel 1)
Protein function Aquaglyceroporins form homotetrameric transmembrane channels, with each monomer independently mediating glycerol and water transport across the plasma membrane along their osmotic gradient (PubMed:10564231, PubMed:30420639, PubMed:35054513, PubM
