Synonyms | KCHIP2 |
Function | Regulatory subunit of Kv4/D (Shal)-type voltage-gated rapidly inactivating A-type potassium channels. Modulates channel density, inactivation kinetics and rate of recovery from inactivation in a calcium-dependent and isoform-specific manner. In vitro, modulates KCND2/Kv4.2 and KCND3/Kv4.3 currents. Involved in KCND2 and KCND3 trafficking to the cell surface. May be required for the expression of I(To) currents in the heart (By similarity). |
Cellular Location | [Isoform 1]: Cell membrane {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9JM59}; Lipid-anchor {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9JM59}. Note=Detected on lipid rafts (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9JM59} [Isoform 6]: Cell membrane {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9JM59}; Lipid-anchor {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9JM59} |
Tissue Location | Expressed in brain. Colocalizes with KCND2 in excitatory neurons including cortical and hippocampal CA1 pyramidal cells. Isoform 3 is expressed in heart and in umbilical vein endothelial cells. Not expressed in fetal heart |

Background
This gene encodes a member of the family of voltage-gatedpotassium (Kv) channel-interacting proteins (KCNIPs), which belongsto the recoverin branch of the EF-hand superfamily. Members of theKCNIP family are small calcium binding proteins. They all haveEF-hand-like domains, and differ from each other in the N-terminus.They are integral subunit components of native Kv4 channelcomplexes. They may regulate A-type currents, and hence neuronalexcitability, in response to changes in intracellular calcium.Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encodingdistinct isoforms have been identified from this gene.
