KCNJ10 - potassium inwardly rectifying channel subfamily J member 10 Gene
Also Known as KIR1.2; KIR4.1; SESAME; BIRK-10; KCNJ13-PEN
Species: Homo sapiens
About KCNJ10
This gene has 10 transcripts (splice variants), 260 orthologues, 15 paralogues and is associated with 6 phenotypes. Biased expression in brain (RPKM 52.7), kidney (RPKM 14.4) and 2 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a member of the inward rectifier-type Potassium Channel family, characterized by having a greater tendency to allow potassium to flow into, rather than out of, a cell. The encoded protein may form a heterodimer with another Potassium Channel protein and may be responsible for the potassium buffering action of glial cells in the brain. Mutations in this gene have been associated with seizure susceptibility of common idiopathic generalized epilepsy syndromes. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
