General annotation (Comments)

Function

Water channel. May be responsible for regulating the osmolarity of the lens. Interactions between homotetramers from adjoining membranes may stabilize cell junctions in the eye lens core By similarity.

Subunit structure

Homotetramer. Homooctamer formed by head-to-head interaction between homotetramers from adjoining membranes By similarity.

Subcellular location

Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Cell junctiongap junction.

Tissue specificity

Major component of lens fiber gap junctions.

Domain

Aquaporins contain two tandem repeats each containing two membrane-spanning helices and a pore-forming loop with the signature motif Asn-Pro-Ala (NPA). Each tandem repeat contains a loop and a short helix that enter and leave the lipid bilayer on the same side By similarity.

Post-translational modification

Subject to partial proteolytic cleavage in the eye lens core. Partial proteolysis promotes interactions between tetramers from adjoining membranes By similarity.

Involvement in disease

Note=Defects in Mip are a cause of autosomal dominant cataract. The cataract Fraser mutation (Cat-Fr or Shrivelled) is a transposon-induced splicing error that substitutes a long terminal repeat sequence for the C-terminus of Mip. The lens opacity mutation (LOP) is an AA substitution that inhibits targeting of Mip to the cell-membrane.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the MIP/aquaporin (TC 1.A.8) family. [View classification]

Caution

Ref.2 sequence was originally thought to originate from Human.
