Abstract

A number of transmembrane (TM) channel proteins can be grouped together on the basis of sequence similarities [PubMed8325040, PubMed2014003, PubMed1715617, PubMed7529436].

These include:

  • Mammalian major intrinsic protein (MIP). MIP is the major component of lens fibre gap junctions.
  • Mammalian aquaporins [PubMed7529436]. These proteins form water- specific channels that provide the plasma membranes of red cells and kidney prox imal and collecting tubules with high permeability to water, thereby permitting water to move in the direction of an osmotic gradient.
  • Soybean nodulin-26, a major component of the peribacteroid membrane induced during nodulation in legume roots after Rhizobium infection.
  • Plants tonoplast intrinsic proteins (TIP). There are various isoforms of TIP : alpha (seed), gamma, Rt (root), and Wsi (water-stress induced). These proteins may allow the diffusion of water, amino acids and/or peptides from the tonoplas t interior to the cytoplasm..
  • Bacterial glycerol facilitator protein (gene glpF), which facilitates the mo vement of glycerol across the cytoplasmic membrane.
  • Salmonella typhimurium propanediol diffusion fac ilitator (gene pduF).
  • Yeast FPS1, a glycerol uptake/efflux facilitator protein.
  • Drosophila neurogenic protein 'big brain' (bib). This protein may mediate in tercellular communication; it may functions by allowing the transport of certain molecules(s) and thereby sending a signal for an exodermal cell to become an ep idermoblast instead of a neuroblast.
  • Yeast hypothetical protein YFL054c.
  • A hypothetical protein from the pepX region of Lactococ cus lactis.

MIP family proteins are thought to contain 6 TM domains. Sequence analysis suggests that the proteins may have arisen through tandem, intragenic duplication from an ancestral protein that contained 3 TM domains [].

Some of the proteins in this group are responsible for the molecular basis of the blood group antigens, surface markers on the outside of the red blood cell membrane. Most of these markers are proteins, but some are carbohydrates a ttached to lipids or proteins [PubMed11845000]. Aquaporin-CHIP (Aquaporin 1) belo ngs to the Colton blood group system and is associated with Co(a/b) antigen.

Browse genome assignments for this superfamily. The SUPERFAMILY hidden Markov model library has been used to carry out SCOP domain assignments to all genomes at the superfamily level.


Alignments of sequences to 12 models in this superfamily are available by clicking on the 'Alignments' icon above. PDB sequences less than 40% identical are shown by default, but any other sequence(s) may be aligned. Select PDB sequences, genome sequences, or paste in or upload your own sequences.


Browse and view proteins in genomes which have different domain combinations including a Aquaporin-like domain.


Examine the distribution of domain superfamilies, or families, across the major taxonomic kingdoms or genomes within a kingdom. This gives an immediate impression of how superfamilies, or families, are restricted to certain kingdoms of life.


Explore domain occurrence network where nodes represent genomes and edges are domain architectures (shared between genomes) containing the superfamily of interest.

There are 12 hidden Markov models representing the Aquaporin-like superfamily. Information on how the models are built, and plots showing hydrophobicity, match emmission probabilities and insertion/deletion probabilities can be inspected.
