General annotation (Comments)

Function

Outward rectifying potassium channel. Ref.1

Subunit structure

Homodimer Potential.

Subcellular location

Membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein Potential.

Tissue specificity

High expression in brain and lung. Also detected in kidney, heart and skeletal muscle. Not detected in liver. In the brain, highest expression in olfactory bulb, hippocampus and cerebellum. Ref.1

Miscellaneous

Inhibited by barium. Activated by volatile general anaesthetics such as chloroform, diethyl ether, halothane and isoflurane.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the two pore domain potassium channel (TC 1.A.1.8) family. [View classification]
