Background Descriptions | Voltage-gated potassium (Kv) channels represent the most complex class of voltage-gated ion channels from both functional and structural standpoints. Their diverse functions include regulating neurotransmitter release, heart rate, insulin secretion, neuronal excitability, epithelial electrolyte transport, smooth muscle contraction, and cell volume. This gene encodes a member of the potassium channel, voltage-gated, isk-related subfamily. This member is a type I membrane protein, and a beta subunit that assembles with a potassium channel alpha-subunit to modulate the gating kinetics and enhance stability of the multimeric complex. This gene is prominently expressed in the embryo and in adult uterus. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]. |

Name | KCNE4 (HGNC:6244) |
---|---|
Function | Ancillary protein that functions as a regulatory subunit of the voltage-gated potassium (Kv) channel complex composed of pore- forming and potassium-conducting alpha subunits and of regulatory beta subunits. KCNE4 beta subunit modulates the gating kinetics and enhances stability of the channel complex (PubMed:12096056, PubMed:19687231, PubMed:20533308, PubMed:27162025). Associates with KCNQ1/KVLTQ1 alpha subunit to inhibit potassium currents (PubMed:12096056, PubMed:19687231, PubMed:20533308, PubMed:27162025). |
Cellular Location | Membrane; Single- pass membrane protein |
Tissue Location | Predominantly expressed in embryo and adult uterus. Low expression found in kidney, small intestine, lung and heart |
