description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.3.0) Predicted to enable several functions, including NADPH binding activity; potassium channel regulator activity; and transmembrane transporter binding activity. Acts upstream of or within learning or memory. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including cytoplasmic side of plasma membrane; dendrite; and perikaryon. Predicted to be part of voltage-gated potassium channel complex. Predicted to be active in juxtaparanode region of axon. Is expressed in brain; heart; reproductive system; and urinary system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in temporal lobe epilepsy. Orthologous to human KCNAB1 (potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily A regulatory beta subunit 1). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for disruptions in this gene experience some learning defects but are otherwise normal. [provided by MGI curators] |
