Protein Information
Name	AQP2 (HGNC:634)
Function	Forms a water-specific channel that provides the plasma membranes of renal collecting duct with high permeability to water, thereby permitting water to move in the direction of an osmotic gradient (PubMed:15509592, PubMed:7510718, PubMed:7524315, PubMed:8140421, PubMed:8584435). Plays an essential role in renal water homeostasis (PubMed:15509592, PubMed:7524315, PubMed:8140421). Could also be permeable to glycerol (PubMed:8584435).
Cellular Location	Apical cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Basolateral cell membrane {ECO:0000250\|UniProtKB:P34080}; Multi-pass membrane protein. Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Cytoplasmic vesicle membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Golgi apparatus, trans-Golgi network membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Note=Shuttles from vesicles to the apical membrane (PubMed:15509592). Vasopressin-regulated phosphorylation is required for translocation to the apical cell membrane (PubMed:15509592). PLEKHA8/FAPP2 is required to transport AQP2 from the TGN to sites where AQP2 is phosphorylated (By similarity) {ECO:0000250\|UniProtKB:P34080, ECO:0000269\|PubMed:15509592}
Tissue Location	Expressed in collecting tubules in kidney medulla (at protein level) (PubMed:7510718). Detected in kidney (PubMed:7510718).
