Summary
KCNN3 (potassium calcium-activated channel subfamily N member 3, HGNC:6292) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 1q21.3, encoding Small conductance calcium-activated potassium channel protein 3 (Q9UGI6). Small conductance calcium-activated potassium channel that mediates the voltage-independent transmembrane transfer of potassium across the cell membrane through a constitutive interaction with calmodulin which binds the intracellular calcium allowing its opening.
Action potentials in vertebrate neurons are followed by an afterhyperpolarization (AHP) that may persist for several seconds and may have profound consequences for the firing pattern of the neuron. Each component of the AHP is kinetically distinct and is mediated by different calcium-activated potassium channels. This gene belongs to the KCNN family of potassium channels. It encodes an integral membrane protein that forms a voltage-independent calcium-activated channel, which is thought to regulate neuronal excitability by contributing to the slow component of synaptic AHP. This gene contains two CAG repeat regions in the coding sequence. It was thought that expansion of one or both of these repeats could lead to an increased susceptibility to schizophrenia or bipolar disorder, but studies indicate that this is probably not the case. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Small conductance calcium-activated potassium channel protein 3 — Q9UGI6 (reviewed: Q9UGI6)
Alternative names: KCa2.3
All UniProt accessions (2): A0A087WYJ0, Q9UGI6
UniProt curated annotations — full annotation on UniProt →
Function. Small conductance calcium-activated potassium channel that mediates the voltage-independent transmembrane transfer of potassium across the cell membrane through a constitutive interaction with calmodulin which binds the intracellular calcium allowing its opening. The current is characterized by a voltage-independent activation, an intracellular calcium concentration increase-dependent activation and a single-channel conductance of 10 picosiemens. Also presents an inwardly rectifying current, thus reducing its already small outward conductance of potassium ions, which is particularly the case when the membrane potential displays positive values, above + 20 mV. Activation is followed by membrane hyperpolarization. Thought to regulate neuronal excitability by contributing to the slow component of synaptic afterhyperpolarization. Does not function as a small conductance calcium-activated potassium channel. Selectively suppresses endogenous KCNN3 currents, in a dominant-negative fashion by decreasing the abundance of functional channels in the plasma membrane, possibly by selectively coassembling with and sequestering native KCNN3 protein in intracellular compartments. This dominant inhibitory effect extends to other members of the SK subfamily.
Subunit / interactions. Homodimer. Heteromultimer with KCNN2 or KCNN1; this modulates plasma membrane expression and consequently the small conductance calcium-activated potassium channel activity. The complex is composed of 4 channel subunits each of which binds to a calmodulin subunit which regulates the channel activity through calcium-binding. Interacts with CALM1.
Subcellular location. Cell membrane. Cytoplasm. Myofibril. Sarcomere. Z line.
Tissue specificity. Widely distributed in human tissues and is present at 20-60% of KCNN3 in the brain.
Disease relevance. Zimmermann-Laband syndrome 3 (ZLS3) [MIM:618658] A form of Zimmermann-Laband syndrome, a rare developmental disorder characterized by facial dysmorphism with bulbous nose and thick floppy ears, gingival enlargement, hypoplasia or aplasia of terminal phalanges and nails, hypertrichosis, joint hyperextensibility, and hepatosplenomegaly. Some patients manifest intellectual disability with or without epilepsy. ZLS3 inheritance is autosomal dominant. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Activity regulation. Inhibited by bee venom neurotoxin apamin.
Domain organisation. The coiled-coil domaim mediates heteromeic assembly.
Polymorphism. The second poly-Gln region of KCNN3 is highly polymorphic and the number of Gln varies from 12 to 28 in the population.
Similarity. Belongs to the potassium channel KCNN family. KCa2.3/KCNN3 subfamily.
