General annotation (Comments)

Function

Potassium channel subunit that does not form functional channels by itself. Modulates KCNB1 and KCNB2 channel activity by shifting the threshold for inactivation to more negative values and by slowing the rate of inactivation. Can down-regulate the channel activity of KCNB1, KCNB2, KCNC4 and KCND1, possibly by trapping them in intracellular membranes By similarity.

Subunit structure

Heteromultimer with KCNB1 and KCNB2. Interacts with KCNC4 and KCND1 By similarity.

Subcellular location

Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein By similarity. Note: Has to be associated with another potassium channel subunit to get inserted in the plasma membrane. Remains intracellular in the absence of KCNB2 By similarity.

Tissue specificity

Detected in brain, throughout layers II, IV and VI of the brain cortex. Detected in cerebellum and hippocampus, in the granule cell layer, Purkinje cell layer, pyramidal cell layer and dentate gyrus. Detected at lower levels in olfactory bulb, amygdala, thalamus, hypothalamus, midbrain and brainstem. Ref.1

Domain

The segment S4 is probably the voltage-sensor and is characterized by a series of positively charged amino acids at every third position By similarity.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the potassium channel family. V (TC 1.A.1.2) subfamily. Kv8.1/KCNV1 sub-subfamily. [View classification]
