Genome-wide characterization of Major Intrinsic Proteins (MIPs) family in Momordica charantia

Major intrinsic proteins (MIPs) family include the group of also called channel or water channels. Aquaporins facilitate transport and other uncharged small molecules, forming pores in cellular boundaries which help plant growth, development, sometimes adaptation. They usually have six tranSmembrane alpha-helical domains with conserved amino acids residues along hydrophobic hydrophilic regions. Though aquaporins were found both animals plants, bacteria, fungi cells, it comprises largest most complex species. A little is known about Momordica charantia. About 25 its are characterized this study. The M. charantia divided into five sub-families here, they PIPs, TIPs, XIPs, SIPs, NIPs. There twelve three eight NIPs, one AQPs XIP SIP. In subfamily, contains SPI than NPA motif. Moreover, SIP NIP subfamily contain different motifs loop B E motifs. McSIPs NPT McNIPs NPS (McNIP1; 1, McNIP1; 3 McNIP3; 1). Again, NPV (McNIP2; 2, show transportation possibility molecules' through those proteins.
