Function
Voltage-gated potassium channel that plays an important role in the rapid repolarization of fast-firing brain neurons. The channel opens in response to the voltage difference across the membrane; forming a potassium-selective channel through which potassium ions pass in accordance with their electrochemical gradient . Can form functional homotetrameric channels and heterotetrameric channels that contain variable proportions of KCNC2; and possibly other family members as well. Contributes to fire sustained trains of very brief action potentials at high frequency in pallidal neurons
