Name
AQuaPorin or aquaglyceroporin related 1
Synonyms
  • CELE_F32A5.5
  • dod-4
Biotype
protein coding gene
Automated Description
Enables channel activity. Involved in defense response to Gram-negative bacterium; glycerol transmembrane transport; and innate immune response. Located in basolateral plasma membrane. Is expressed in intestine and pharynx. Orthologous to several human genes including AQP10 (aquaporin 10); AQP3 (aquaporin 3 (Gill blood group)); and AQP7 (aquaporin 7).
WB Description
aqp-1 encodes, by alternative splicing, two isoforms of an aquaglyceroporin required for normally short lifespan; AQP-1 expression is upregulated under daf-2(-) conditions, and loss of AQP-1 function in daf-2 mutant animals results in reduced lifespan; AQP-1 increases glycerol permeability five- to seven-fold when expressed in Xenopus oocytes; AQP-1::GFP fusion proteins are expressed predominantly in the intestine, where they localize to the basolateral plasma membrane, but are also expressed in the pharynx; intestinal expression of AQP-1 is repressed by infection with Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
