Description
| Tissue Specificity | Salivary glands, lacrimal glands, corneal epithelium in eye, trachea and lung. |
| Post Translational Modifications | |
| Function | Forms a water-specific channel. Plays an important role in fluid secretion in salivary glands. Required for TRPV4 activation by hypotonicity. Together with TRPV4, controls regulatory volume decrease in salivary epithelial cells. Seems to play a redundant role in water transport in the eye, lung and in sweat glands. |
