| Description: | Several different potassium channels are known to beinvolved with electrical signaling in the nervous system. One classis activated by depolarization whereas a second class is not. Thelatter are referred to as inwardly rectifying K+ channels, and theyhave a greater tendency to allow potassium to flow into the cellrather than out of it. This asymmetry in potassium ion conductanceplays a key role in the excitability of muscle cells and neurons.The protein encoded by this gene is an integral membrane proteinand member of the inward rectifier potassium channel family. Theencoded protein has a small unitary conductance compared to othermembers of this protein family. Two transcript variants encodingthe same protein have been found for this gene.
