|
Function |
Potassium channel subunit. Modulates channel activity by shifting the threshold and the half-maximal activation to more negative values.
|
Subcellular Location |
Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Note=Has to be associated with KCNB1 or possibly another partner to get inserted in the plasma membrane. Remains intracellular in the absence of KCNB1.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Highly expressed in brain, and at lower levels in liver, small intestine and colon.
