Summary
Predicted to enable outward rectifier potassium channel activity and potassium ion leak channel activity. Predicted to be involved in potassium ion transmembrane transport. Predicted to be located in membrane. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in migraine. Orthologous to human KCNK18 (potassium two pore domain channel subfamily K member 18). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jan 2025]
