Protein Details: Potassium voltage-gated channel protein Shal
Protein ID
ICDB_Pro_0370
Protein Name
Potassium voltage-gated channel protein Shal
Gene Name
Shal; SHAL2; CG9262
Organism
Drosophila melanogaster (Fruit fly)
Length
571 amino acids
AlphaFoldDB
AF-P17971-F1-model_v4.pdb
Function
Mediates the voltage-dependent potassium ion permeability of excitable membranes. Assuming opened or closed conformations in response to the voltage difference across the membrane; the protein forms a potassium-selective channel through which potassium ions may pass in accordance with their electrochemical gradient. May play a role in the nervous system and in the regulation of beating frequency in pacemaker cells
