    Summary
    Predicted to enable inward rectifier potassium channel activity and voltage-gated potassium channel activity involved in atrial cardiac muscle cell action potential repolarization. Predicted to be involved in cardiac conduction; potassium ion import across plasma membrane; and regulation of ion transmembrane transport. Predicted to act upstream of or within potassium ion transport. Predicted to be located in T-tubule and external side of plasma membrane. Predicted to be part of voltage-gated potassium channel complex. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; heart; intestine; liver lobe; and placenta. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in atrial fibrillation; long QT syndrome 13; and primary hyperaldosteronism. Orthologous to human KCNJ5 (potassium inwardly rectifying channel subfamily J member 5). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

    RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

    These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

    These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
