Aquaporin 5 (AQP5) is a water channel protein. Aquaporins are a family of small integral membrane proteins related to the major intrinsic protein (MIP or AQP0). Aquaporin 5 plays a role in the generation of saliva, tears and pulmonary secretions. AQP0, AQP2, AQP5, and AQP6 are closely related and all map to 12q13. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Function:
Forms a water-specific channel. Implicated in the generation of saliva, tears, and pulmonary secretions.
Subcellular Location:
Membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
Similarity:
Belongs to the MIP/aquaporin (TC 1.A.8) family.
