Name | KCNG3 |
---|---|
Function | Potassium channel subunit that does not form functional channels by itself (PubMed:11852086). Can form functional heterotetrameric channels with KCNB1; this promotes a reduction in the rate of activation and inactivation of the delayed rectifier voltage- gated potassium channel KCNB1 (PubMed:11852086, PubMed:19074135). |
Cellular Location | Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Cytoplasm. Note=Has to be associated with KCNB1 or possibly another partner to get inserted in the plasma membrane (PubMed:12060745). Colocalizes with KCNB1 at the plasma membrane (PubMed:12060745, PubMed:19074135). Remains intracellular in the absence of KCNB1 (PubMed:12060745). |
Tissue Location | Expressed in the brain, liver, testis, small intestine, colon, thymus and adrenal gland (PubMed:11852086, PubMed:12060745). |

Background
Voltage-gated potassium (Kv) channels represent the most complex class of voltage-gated ion channels from both functional and structural standpoints. Their diverse functions include regulating neurotransmitter release, heart rate, insulin secretion, neuronal excitability, epithelial electrolyte transport, smooth muscle contraction, and cell volume. This gene encodes a member of the potassium channel, voltage-gated, subfamily G. This member is a gamma subunit functioning as a modulatory molecule.
