Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables potassium channel regulator activity. Involved in potassium ion transport and regulation of potassium ion transmembrane transport. Located in perinuclear region of cytoplasm and plasma membrane. Part of voltage-gated potassium channel complex. Orthologous to human KCNS1 (potassium voltage-gated channel modifier subfamily S member 1). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a conditional allele activated in DRG exhibit increased sensitivity to mechanical stimulation prior to and following neuropathic pain induction and cold nociception following neuropathic pain induction, and increased performance on a rotarod.
