CC -!- FUNCTION: Channel that permits osmotically driven movement of water in
CC both directions. It is involved in the osmoregulation and in the
CC maintenance of cell turgor during volume expansion in rapidly growing
CC cells. It mediates rapid entry or exit of water in response to abrupt
CC changes in osmolarity (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Homotetramer. {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cell inner membrane {ECO:0000250}; Multi-pass
CC membrane protein {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the MIP/aquaporin (TC 1.A.8) family.
CC {ECO:0000305}.
