About KCNH6

Cytogenetic location: 17q23.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 17:63,523,358-63,548,992 (from NCBI)

This gene has 6 transcripts (splice variants), 179 orthologues and 17 paralogues. Biased expression in kidney (RPKM 3.1), small intestine (RPKM 1.8) and 4 other tissues.

Summary

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 H. This member is a pore-forming (alpha) subunit. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants that encode different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2013]
