Protein Name
β2 (Calcium-activated potassium channel subunit beta-2)
Gene Name
KCNMB2
Organism
Homo sapiens (Human)
Length
235 amino acids
AlphaFoldDB
AF-Q9Y691-F1-model_v4.pdb
Function
Regulatory subunit of the calcium activated potassium KCNMA1 (maxiK) channel. Modulates the calcium sensitivity and gating kinetics of KCNMA1;thereby contributing to KCNMA1 channel diversity. Acts as a negative regulator that confers rapid and complete inactivation of KCNMA1 channel complex. May participate in KCNMA1 inactivation in chromaffin cells of the adrenal gland or in hippocampal CA1 neurons
