Summary
KCNJ6 (potassium inwardly rectifying channel subfamily J member 6, HGNC:6267) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 21q22.13, encoding G protein-activated inward rectifier potassium channel 2 (P48051). Inward rectifier potassium channels are characterized by a greater tendency to allow potassium to flow into the cell rather than out of it.
This gene encodes a member of the G protein-coupled inwardly-rectifying potassium channel family of inward rectifier potassium channels. This type of potassium channel allows a greater flow of potassium into the cell than out of it. These proteins modulate many physiological processes, including heart rate in cardiac cells and circuit activity in neuronal cells, through G-protein coupled receptor stimulation. Mutations in this gene are associated with Keppen-Lubinsky Syndrome, a rare condition characterized by severe developmental delay, facial dysmorphism, and intellectual disability.

All UniProt accessions (1): P48051

Function. Inward rectifier potassium channels are characterized by a greater tendency to allow potassium to flow into the cell rather than out of it. Their voltage dependence is regulated by the concentration of extracellular potassium; as external potassium is raised, the voltage range of the channel opening shifts to more positive voltages. The inward rectification is mainly due to the blockage of outward current by internal magnesium. This potassium channel may be involved in the regulation of insulin secretion by glucose and/or neurotransmitters acting through G-protein-coupled receptors.
Subunit / interactions. Associates with KCNJ3/GIRK1 or KCNJ5/GRIK4 to form a G-protein-activated heteromultimer pore-forming unit. The resulting inward current is much larger. Interacts (via PDZ-binding motif) with SNX27 (via PDZ domain); the interaction is required when endocytosed to prevent degradation in lysosomes and promote recycling to the plasma membrane.
Subcellular location. Membrane.
Tissue specificity. Most abundant in cerebellum, and to a lesser degree in islets and exocrine pancreas.
Disease relevance. Keppen-Lubinsky syndrome (KPLBS) [MIM:614098] A rare disease characterized by severe developmental delay, intellectual disability, severe generalized lipodystrophy, dysmorphic features including microcephaly, large prominent eyes, narrow nasal bridge, tented upper lip, high palate, open mouth, tightly adherent skin, and aged appearance. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Activity regulation. Activated by phosphatidylinositol 4,5 biphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P2).
Similarity. Belongs to the inward rectifier-type potassium channel (TC 1.A.2.1) family. KCNJ6 subfamily.
