Gene information for KCNJ14 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID3770
Official gene symbolKCNJ14
Full namepotassium inwardly-rectifying channel, subfamily J, member 14
Aliases,IRK4,KIR2.4,MGC46111,
Gene summaryPotassium 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. Two transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq]
