Background
potassium two pore domain channel subfamily K member 16(KCNK16) Homo sapiens 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. This gene is expressed predominantly in the pancreas and is activated at alkaline pH. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2008],
Function
function:Outward rectifying potassium channel. Produces rapidly activating and non-inactivating outward rectifier K(+) currents.,miscellaneous:Inhibited by Ba(2+), quinine, quinidine, chloroform and halothane. Activated at alkaline pH.,similarity:Belongs to the two pore domain potassium channel (TC 1.A.1.8) family.,subunit:Homodimer .,tissue specificity:Highly expressed in pancreas. Not detectable in the other tissues tested.,
Protein name
Potassium channel subfamily K member 16 (2P domain potassium channel Talk-1) (TWIK-related alkaline pH-activated K(+) channel 1) (TALK-1)
