Target Details for MIP

Target: MIP (Major Intrinsic Protein of Lens Fiber (MIP))

Alternative Name: AQP0 (MIP Products)

Background:

Synonyms: AQP0, LIM1, MP26, MIP26, CTRCT15, Lens fiber major intrinsic protein, Aquaporin-0, MIP

Background: Water channel (PubMed:24120416). Channel activity is down-regulated by CALM when cytoplasmic Ca(2+) levels are increased. 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). Plays a role in cell-to-cell adhesion and facilitates gap junction coupling (PubMed:24120416).
