Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable delayed rectifier potassium channel activity and transmembrane transporter binding activity. Predicted to be involved in potassium ion transmembrane transport and regulation of membrane potential. Predicted to act upstream of or within regulation of G2/M transition of mitotic cell cycle. Predicted to be located in cell surface. Predicted to be part of voltage-gated potassium channel complex. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including blood vessel; central nervous system; eye; genitourinary system; and thymus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in developmental and epileptic encephalopathy. Orthologous to human KCNH5 (potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily H member 5). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a targeted gene disruption display thigmotaxis and abnormal startle reflex. [provided by MGI curators] |
