Gene Name: aquaporin 6, kidney specific
Symbol:
Description: The protein encoded by this gene is an Aquaporin protein, which functions as a water channel in cells. Aquaporins are a family of small integral membrane proteins related to the major intrinsic protein (MIP or AQP0). This protein is specific for the kidney. This gene and other three members of Aquaproin AQP0, AQP2, and AQP5 are closely related and all map to 12q13. Two alternatively spliced transcript variants of this gene have been reported.
