KCNJ12, potassium inwardly rectifying channel subfamily J member 12

KCNJ12, potassium inwardly rectifying channel subfamily J member 12

• This gene encodes an inwardly rectifying K+ channel which may be blocked by divalent cations. This protein is thought to be one of multiple inwardly rectifying channels which contribute to the cardiac inward rectifier current (IK1). The gene is located within the Smith-Magenis syndrome region on chromosome 17. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
