Target Information

Kcna2 is a voltage-gated potassium channel (KV) belonging to the 6-TM family of potassium channels, which also includes Ca2+-activated Slo (7-TM) and SK subfamilies.
The alpha-subunits form tetramers with a single pore-forming region. Potassium channels regulate neurotransmitter release, heart rate, insulin secretion, neuronal excitability, epithelial electrolyte transport, smooth muscle contraction, and cell volume.

Four sequence-related potassium channel genes—shaker, shaw, shab, and shal—have been identified in Drosophila, each with human homologs.
The Kcna2 gene encodes a member of the voltage-gated, shaker-related potassium channel subfamily. It contains six membrane-spanning domains with a shaker-type repeat in the fourth segment and belongs to the delayed rectifier class, enabling efficient nerve cell repolarization after action potentials.

The coding region of Kcna2 is intronless and clustered with genes KCNA3 and KCNA10 on chromosome 1.
Diseases associated with KCNA2 include Epileptic Encephalopathy (Early Infantile, 32) and Undetermined Early-Onset Epileptic Encephalopathy.
