Protein Coding Gene : Kcnma1 potassium large conductance calcium-activated channel, subfamily M, alpha member 1

Primary Identifier  MGI:99923 Organism  mouse, laboratory
Chromosome  14 NCBI Gene Number  16531
Mgi Type  protein coding gene
description  FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0)

Enables identical protein binding activity; large conductance calcium-activated potassium channel activity; and voltage-gated potassium channel activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including adult walking behavior; cell maturation; and eye blink reflex. Located in several cellular components, including apical plasma membrane; external side of plasma membrane; and postsynaptic membrane. Part of voltage-gated potassium channel complex. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; genitourinary system; hemolymphoid system gland; and liver and biliary system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Alzheimer's disease; idiopathic generalized epilepsy; and paroxysmal nonkinesigenic dyskinesia 3. Orthologous to human KCNMA1 (potassium calcium-activated channel subfamily M alpha 1).
PHENOTYPE: Homozygous inactivation of this gene leads to cerebellar ataxia, Purkinje cell dysfunction, uneven gait patterns, bladder hyperactivity, urinary incontinence, abnormal colonic K+ secretion, and hearing impairment. [provided by MGI curators]
