Chromosome | 3 | NCBI Gene Number | 242151 |
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. Predicted to be involved in action potential and potassium ion transmembrane transport. Predicted to act upstream of or within potassium ion transport. Predicted to be located in plasma membrane. Predicted to be part of voltage-gated potassium channel complex. Predicted to be active in membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including inner ear and skeletal muscle. Used to study vestibular disease. Orthologous to human KCNA10 (potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily A member 10). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit significant vestibular and mild hearing dysfunction. [provided by MGI curators] |
