K2p18.1, TRESK, TRESK-2, TRESK2, TRIK
Description
Potassium channel, two pore domain subfamily K, member 18 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
Potassium channels play a role in many cellular processes including maintenance of the action potential, muscle contraction, hormone secretion, osmotic regulation, and ion flow. This gene encodes a member of the superfamily of potassium channel proteins containing two pore-forming P domains and the encoded protein functions as an outward rectifying potassium channel. A mutation in this gene has been found to be associated with migraine with aura.[provided by RefSeq, Jan 2011]
