Protein Details: Potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily S member 3
Protein ID
ICDB_Pro_1455
Protein Name
Potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily S member 3
Gene Name
KCNS3
Organism
Homo sapiens (Human)
Length
491 amino acids
AlphaFoldDB
AF-Q9BQ31-F1-model_v4.pdb
Function
Potassium channel subunit that does not form functional channels by itself. Can form functional heterotetrameric channels with KCNB1; modulates the delayed rectifier voltage-gated potassium channel activation and deactivation rates of KCNB1. Heterotetrameric channel activity formed with KCNB1 show increased current amplitude with the threshold for action potential activation shifted towards more negative values in hypoxic-treated pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (By similarity)

Location
Detected in whole normal term placental and placental chorionic plate arteries and veins. Detected in syncytiotrophoblast and in blood vessel endothelium within intermediate villi and chorionic plate (at protein level) (PubMed:22943705). Detected in most tissues; but not in peripheral blood lymphocytes. The highest levels of expression are in lung (PubMed:10484328).
