KCNK10 potassium two pore domain channel subfamily K member 10

Gene ID: 54207, updated on 2-Nov-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: TREK2; TREK-2; K2p10.1; PPP1R97

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the family of potassium channel proteins containing two pore-forming P domains. This channel is an open rectifier which primarily passes outward current under physiological K+ concentrations, and is stimulated strongly by arachidonic acid and to a lesser degree by membrane stretching, intracellular acidification, and general anaesthetics. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2008]
