CC -!- FUNCTION: Water channel. May be responsible for regulating the
CC osmolarity of the lens. Interactions between homotetramers from
CC adjoining membranes may stabilize cell junctions in the eye lens core.
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q6J8I9}.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Homotetramer. Homooctamer formed by head-to-head interaction
CC between homotetramers from adjoining membranes (By similarity). During
CC early stages of lens development, interacts through its C-terminal
CC region with Cx56 and GJA8/Cx45.6 (PubMed:14762116).
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P06624, ECO:0000269|PubMed:14762116}.
CC -!- INTERACTION:
CC P28238; P36381: GJA8; NbExp=11; IntAct=EBI-867385, EBI-867402;
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cell membrane {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P30301};
CC Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q6J8I9}. Cell
CC junction, gap junction {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P30301}.
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Major component of lens fiber gap junctions.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:14762116}.
CC -!- DOMAIN: Aquaporins contain two tandem repeats each containing two
CC membrane-spanning helices and a pore-forming loop with the signature
CC motif Asn-Pro-Ala (NPA). Each tandem repeat contains a loop and a short
CC helix that enter and leave the lipid bilayer on the same side (By
CC similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the MIP/aquaporin (TC 1.A.8) family.
CC {ECO:0000305}.
