KCNJ11

Species
Homo sapiens
Symbol
KCNJ11
Name
potassium inwardly rectifying channel subfamily J member 11
Synonyms
  • ATP-sensitive inward rectifier potassium channel 11
  • beta-cell inward rectifier subunit
Biotype
protein coding gene
Automated Description
Enables ankyrin binding activity; transmembrane transporter binding activity; and voltage-gated monoatomic ion channel activity. Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of insulin secretion; potassium ion transmembrane transport; and response to ATP. Located in plasma membrane. Part of inward rectifying potassium channel. Implicated in glucose metabolism disease (multiple).
RGD Description
Potassium channels are present in most mammalian cells, where they participate in a wide range of physiologic responses. The protein encoded by this gene is an integral membrane protein and inward-rectifier type potassium channel. The encoded protein, which has a greater tendency to allow potassium to flow into a cell rather than out of a cell, is controlled by G-proteins and is found associated with the sulfonylurea receptor SUR. Mutations in this gene are a cause of familial persistent hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia of infancy (PHHI), an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by unregulated insulin secretion. Defects in this gene may also contribute to autosomal dominant non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus type II (NIDDM), transient neonatal diabetes mellitus type 3 (TNDM3), and permanent neonatal diabetes mellitus (PNDM). Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants that encode different protein isoforms have been described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]
