KCNK7 potassium two pore domain channel subfamily K member 7

Gene ID: 10089, updated on 17-Jun-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: TWIK3; K2p7.1

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the superfamily of potassium channel proteins containing two pore-forming P domains. The product of this gene has not been shown to be a functional channel; however, it may require other non-pore-forming proteins for activity. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
