Function
Forms a water-specific channel that provides the plasma membranes of red cells and kidney proximal tubules with high permeability to water; thereby permitting water to move in the direction of an osmotic gradient. Component of the ankyrin-1 complex; a multiprotein complex involved in the stability and shape of the erythrocyte membrane.
