|
| Function |
Pore-forming (alpha) subunit of voltage-gated potassium channel. Elicits an outward current, but shows no inactivation. Channel properties may be modulated by cAMP and subunit assembly.
|
| Subcellular Location |
Membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
|
| Tissue Specificity |
Detected only in brain, in particular in the telencephalon. Detected in putamen and caudate nucleus, and at lower levels in cerebral cortex, occipital and hippocampus.
