Gene information for KCNH7 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID90134
Official gene symbolKCNH7
Full namepotassium voltage-gated channel, subfamily H (eag-related), member 7
Aliases,ERG3,HERG3,Kv11.3,MGC45986,
Gene summaryVoltage-gated potassium (Kv) channels represent the most complex class of voltage-gated ion channels from both functional and structural standpoints. Their diverse functions include regulating neurotransmitter release, heart rate, insulin secretion, neuronal excitability, epithelial electrolyte transport, smooth muscle contraction, and cell volume. This gene encodes a member of the potassium channel, voltage-gated, subfamily H. This member is a pore-forming (alpha) subunit. There are at least two alternatively spliced transcript variants derived from this gene and encoding distinct isoforms. [provided by RefSeq]
