GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
KCNK17 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
K2p17.1, TALK-2, TALK2, TASK-4, TASK4
Description
Potassium channel, two pore domain subfamily K, member 17 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
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 activated at alkaline pH. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2008]
