Summary: Enables water channel activity. Involved in metanephric collecting duct development. Acts upstream of or within cellular response to water deprivation and renal water transport. Located in several cellular components, including apical plasma membrane; lumenal side of membrane; and recycling endosome. Is expressed in inner ear; metanephros; vestibulo-cochlear ganglion; and vestibulocochlear nerve cochlear component. Used to study nephrogenic diabetes insipidus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in nephrogenic diabetes insipidus and nephrogenic diabetes insipidus type 2. Orthologous to human AQP2 (aquaporin 2).

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
