Gene Details:

  • Gene ID:
  • Gene Symbol: NtAQP1
  • Gene Name: Aquaporin 1
  • Genome:
  • Species: Nicotiana tabacum

Functional Descriptions:

  • Tobacco aquaporin NtAQP1 is involved in mesophyll conductance to CO2in vivo.
  • A good candidate for this could be the Nicotiana tabacum L. aquaporin NtAQP1, which was shown to increase membrane permeability to CO2 in Xenopus oocytes.
  • NtAQP1 is a member of the plasma membrane aquaporin 1 family (PIP1), which is mercury-insensitive and permeable to water and glycerol, but impermeable to Na+, K+ and Cl−.
  • These results provide evidence for the in vivo involvement of aquaporin NtAQP1 in mesophyll conductance to CO2.
