GENE INFORMATION

Gene name

 KCNF1 (HGNC Symbol)

Synonyms

 IK8, KCNF, kH1, Kv5.1

Description

 Potassium channel, voltage gated modifier subfamily F, member 1 (HGNC Symbol)

Entrez gene summary

 Voltage-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 F. This gene is intronless and expressed in all tissues tested, including the heart, skeletal muscle, brain, kidney, and pancreas. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
