Aquaglyceroporin, plasma membrane channel; involved in efflux of glycerol and xylitol, and in transport of acetate, arsenite, and antimonite; key factor in maintaining redox balance by mediating passive diffusion of glycerol; phosphorylated by Hog1p and Slt2p MAPK; deletion improves xylose fermentation; regulated by Rgc1p and Ask10p, which are regulated by Hog1p phosphorylation under osmotic stress; phosphorylation by Ypk1p required to maintain an open state
