Protein ID
ICDB_Pro_1343
Protein Name
Potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily E member 4
Gene Name
KCNE4
Organism
Homo sapiens (Human)
Length
221 amino acids
AlphaFoldDB
AF-Q8WWG9-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. Associates with KCNQ1/KVLTQ1 and inhibits potassium currents
