Gene information for KCNC4 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID3749
Official gene symbolKCNC4
Full namepotassium voltage-gated channel, Shaw-related subfamily, member 4
Aliases,HKSHIIIC,KSHIIIC,KV3.4,MGC126818,
Gene summaryThe Shaker gene family of Drosophila encodes components of voltage-gated potassium channels and is comprised of four subfamilies. Based on sequence similarity, this gene is similar to the Shaw subfamily. The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the delayed rectifier class of channel proteins and is an integral membrane protein that mediates the voltage-dependent potassium ion permeability of excitable membranes. It generates atypical voltage-dependent transient current that may be important for neuronal excitability. Multiple transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq]
