CC -!- FUNCTION: Forms a water-specific channel. Plays an important role in
CC brain water homeostasis and in glymphatic solute transport. Required
CC for a normal rate of water exchange across the blood brain interface.
CC Required for normal levels of cerebrospinal fluid influx into the brain
CC cortex and parenchyma along paravascular spaces that surround
CC penetrating arteries, and for normal drainage of interstitial fluid
CC along paravenous drainage pathways. Thereby, it is required for normal
CC clearance of solutes from the brain interstitial fluid, including
CC soluble beta-amyloid peptides derived from APP. Plays a redundant role
CC in urinary water homeostasis and urinary concentrating ability.
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P55088}.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Homotetramer. The tetramers can form oligomeric arrays in
CC membranes. The size of the oligomers differs between tissues and is
CC smaller in skeletal muscle than in brain. Interaction between AQP4
CC oligomeric arrays in close-by cells can contribute to cell-cell
CC adhesion (By similarity). Part of a complex containing MLC1, TRPV4,
CC HEPACAM and ATP1B1 (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P47863,
CC ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P55087}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cell membrane {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P55088};
CC Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P55087}. Basolateral
CC cell membrane {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P55088}; Multi-pass membrane
CC protein {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P55087}. Endosome membrane
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P47863}. Cell membrane, sarcolemma
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P55088}; Multi-pass membrane protein
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P55087}. Cell projection
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P55088}. Note=Activation of the vasopressin
CC receptor AVPR1A triggers AQP4 phosphorylation at Ser-180 and promotes
CC its internalization from the cell membrane (By similarity). Detected on
CC brain astrocyte processes and astrocyte endfeet close to capillaries
CC (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P47863,
CC ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P55088}.

CC IsoId=Q923J4-1; Sequence=Displayed;
CC Name=1;
CC IsoId=Q923J4-2; Sequence=VSP_010210;
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Not expressed in kidney, Detectable in gastric
CC parietal and brain astroglial cells. The absence of AQP4 in kidney may
CC be critical for the extreme urinary concentration that occurs in this
CC species (up to 5,000 mosmol/kg H(2)O). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11292621}.
CC -!- DOMAIN: Aquaporins contain two tandem repeats each containing three
CC membrane-spanning domains and a pore-forming loop with the signature
CC motif Asn-Pro-Ala (NPA). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P55087}.
CC -!- PTM: Phosphorylation by PKC at Ser-180 reduces conductance by 50%.
CC Phosphorylation by PKG at Ser-111 in response to glutamate increases
CC conductance by 40% (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- PTM: Isoform 2: Palmitoylated on its N-terminal region. Isoform 1: Not
CC palmitoylated. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P47863}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the MIP/aquaporin (TC 1.A.8) family.
CC {ECO:0000305}.
