1.A.8.1.2
Aqp1 of 270 aas and 6 TMSs. Induced by NH3 but not CO2, but transports both gases. Aqp1 is found in the plasma membrae as well as the ER/chloroplast. Aqp1 may be involved in photoprotection. It may facilitate the efflux of NH3, preventing the uncoupling effect of high intracellular ammonia concentrations (Matsui et al. 2018).
