Summary

KCNC4 (potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily C member 4, HGNC:6236) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 1p13.3, encoding Voltage-gated potassium channel KCNC4 (Q03721). Voltage-gated potassium channel that opens in response to the voltage difference across the membrane, forming a potassium-selective channel through which potassium ions pass in accordance with their electrochemical gradient.

The Shaker gene family of Drosophila encodes components of voltage-gated potassium channels and is comprised of four subfamilies. Based on sequence similarity, this gene is similar to the Shaw subfamily. The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the delayed rectifier class of channel proteins and is an integral membrane protein that mediates the voltage-dependent potassium ion permeability of excitable membranes. It generates atypical voltage-dependent transient current that may be important for neuronal excitability. Multiple transcript variants have been found for this gene.

Function. Voltage-gated potassium channel that opens in response to the voltage difference across the membrane, forming a potassium-selective channel through which potassium ions pass in accordance with their electrochemical gradient. The channel displays rapid activation and inactivation kinetics.

Subunit / interactions. Homotetramer. Heterotetramer of potassium channel proteins.

Subcellular location. Membrane.

Post-translational modifications. Phosphorylation of serine residues in the inactivation gate inhibits rapid channel closure.

Domain organisation. The cytoplasmic N-terminus mediates N-type inactivation. Composed of the tetramerization T1 domain, six membrane spanning regions including voltage-sensing (S1-S4) and pore domains (S5- S6) and a variable C-terminal domain.

Miscellaneous. Could be a cloning artifact.

Similarity. Belongs to the potassium channel family. C (Shaw) (TC 1.A.1.2) subfamily. Kv3.4/KCNC4 sub-subfamily.
