Background

Aquaporin-9 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the AQP9 gene. AQP9 encodes a 295-amino-acid protein with the amino acid sequence identity with AQP3 (48%), AQP7 (45%), and other aquaporins (approximately 30%), suggesting that AQP3, AQP7, and AQP9 belong to a subfamily of the aquaporin family. AQP9 is the major glycerol channel in mouse erythrocytes and suggest that this transport pathway may contribute to the virulence of intraerythrocytic stages of malarial infection.

Function

Forms a channel with a broad specificity. Mediates passage of a wide variety of non-charged solutes including carbamides, polyols, purines, and pyrimidines in a phloretin- and mercury-sensitive manner, whereas amino acids, cyclic sugars, Na (+), K (+), Cl (-), and deprotonated monocarboxylates are excluded. Also permeable to urea and glycerol (By similarity) . .
