About KCNJ13

Cytogenetic location: 2q37.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 2:232,765,802-232,776,565 (from NCBI)

This gene has 5 transcripts (splice variants), 214 orthologues, 15 paralogues and is associated with 6 phenotypes. Biased expression in small intestine (RPKM 40.5), thyroid (RPKM 3.6) and 1 other tissue.

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the inwardly rectifying Potassium Channel family of proteins. Members of this family form ion channel pores that allow potassium ions to pass into a cell. The encoded protein belongs to a subfamily of low signal channel conductance proteins that have a low dependence on potassium concentration. Mutations in this gene are associated with snowflake vitreoretinal degeneration. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, Feb 2010]
