Species: Homo sapiens
About KCNJ14
This gene has 2 transcripts (splice variants), 174 orthologues and 15 paralogues. Broad expression in testis (RPKM 1.5), skin (RPKM 1.2) and 21 other tissues.
Summary
Potassium channels are present in most mammalian cells, where they participate in a wide range of physiologic responses. The protein encoded by this gene is an integral membrane protein and inward-rectifier type Potassium Channel, and probably has a role in controlling the excitability of motor neurons.
