| Standard Name | AQY2 1 |
|---|---|
| Systematic Name | YLL052C |
| Feature Type | ORF, Verified |
| Description | Water channel that mediates the transport of water across cell membranes, only expressed in proliferating cells, controlled by osmotic signals, may be involved in freeze tolerance; disrupted by a stop codon in many S. cerevisiae strains (2, 3, 4) |
| Name Description | AQuaporin of Yeast 1, 5 |
| Chromosomal Location | |
