Description
Product Characteristics: This gene encodes one of the members of the superfamily of potassium channel proteins containing two pore-forming P domains. The product of this gene has not been shown to be a functional channel, however, it may require other non-pore-forming proteins for activity. KCNK15 (Potassium Two Pore Domain Channel Subfamily K Member 15) is a Protein Coding gene. Among its related pathways are Neuropathic Pain-Signaling in Dorsal Horn Neurons and Sweet Taste Signaling. GO annotations related to this gene include potassium channel activity and potassium ion leak channel activity. An important paralog of this gene is KCNK9.
Target Information: This gene encodes one of the members of the superfamily of potassium channel proteins containing two pore-forming P domains. The product of this gene has not been shown to be a functional channel, however, it may require other non-pore-forming proteins for activity. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
