Function |
Probable potassium channel subunit. No channel activity observed in heterologous systems. May need to associate with another protein to form a functional channel.
|
Subcellular Location |
Membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Detected in pancreas, heart, placenta, lung, liver, kidney, ovary, testis, skeletal muscle and adrenal gland, and at lower levels in prostate, spleen and thyroid gland. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11409881, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11680614}.
