Function This potassium channel may be involved in the regulation of insulin secretion by glucose and/or neurotransmitters acting through G-protein-coupled receptors. Inward rectifier potassium channels are characterized by a greater tendency to allow potassium to flow into the cell rather than out of it. Their voltage dependence is regulated by the concentration of extracellular potassium; as external potassium is raised, the voltage range of the channel opening shifts to more positive voltages. The inward rectification is mainly due to the blockage of outward current by internal magnesium.
Subcellular Location Membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
Tissue Specificity Most abundant in cerebellum, and to a lesser degree in islets and exocrine pancreas.
Top Pathways GABAergic synapse, Dopaminergic synapse, Morphine addiction, Retrograde endocannabinoid signaling, Circadian entrainment
