HCN2 - hyperpolarization activated cyclic nucleotide gated potassium and sodium channel 2 Gene
Also Known as FEB2; BCNG2; EIG17; HAC-1; BCNG-2; GEFSP11
Species: Homo sapiens
About HCN2
This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 256 orthologues, 17 paralogues and is associated with 1 phenotype. Biased expression in brain (RPKM 15.0), heart (RPKM 4.6) and 2 other tissues.
Summary
The protein encoded by this gene is a hyperpolarization-activated cation channel involved in the generation of native pacemaker activity in the heart and in the brain. The encoded protein is activated by cAMP and can produce a fast, large current. Defects in this gene were noted as a possible cause of some forms of epilepsy. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2017]
