Protein Details: Potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily E member 1

Protein ID

ICDB_Pro_0349

Protein Name

Potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily E member 1

Gene Name

KCNE1

Organism

Homo sapiens (Human)

Length

129 amino acids

AlphaFoldDB

AF-P15382-F1-model_v4.pdb

Function

Ancillary protein that assembles as a beta subunit with a voltage-gated potassium channel complex of pore-forming alpha subunits. Modulates the gating kinetics and enhances stability of the channel complex. Assembled with KCNB1 modulates the gating characteristics of the delayed rectifier voltage-dependent potassium channel KCNB1. Assembled with KCNQ1/KVLQT1 is proposed to form the slowly activating delayed rectifier cardiac potassium (IKs) channel. The outward current reaches its steady state only after 50 seconds. Assembled with KCNH2/HERG may modulate the rapidly activating component of the delayed rectifying potassium current in heart (IKr)
