Protein Details: Small conductance calcium-activated potassium channel protein 2
Protein ID
ICDB_Pro_1507
Protein Name
Small conductance calcium-activated potassium channel protein 2
Gene Name
KCNN2
Organism
Homo sapiens (Human)
Length
579 amino acids
AlphaFoldDB
AF-Q9H2S1-F1-model_v4.pdb
Function
Forms a voltage-independent potassium channel activated by intracellular calcium. Activation is followed by membrane hyperpolarization. Thought to regulate neuronal excitability by contributing to the slow component of synaptic afterhyperpolarization
