KCNG3 - potassium voltage-gated channel modifier subfamily G member 3 Gene
Also Known as KV6.3; KV10.1
Species: Homo sapiens
About KCNG3
This gene has 2 transcripts (splice variants), 182 orthologues and 31 paralogues. Low expression observed in reference dataset.
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 G. This member is a gamma subunit functioning as a modulatory molecule. Alternative splicing results in two transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
