domain:The segment S4 is probably the voltage-sensor and is characterized by a series of positively charged amino acids at every third position.,function:Potassium channel subunit. Modulates channel activity.,similarity:Belongs to the potassium channel family. G subfamily.,subcellular location:Has to be associated with KCNB1 or possibly another partner to get inserted in the plasma membrane. Remains intracellular in the absence of KCNB1.,subunit:Heteromultimer with KCNB1, KCNC1 and KCNF1. Does not form homomultimers.,tissue specificity:Detected in many parts of the brain with the exception of the cerebellum, in testis, pancreas, lung, kidney, ovary, small intestine, colon, thymus, adrenal gland and spinal cord.,
Cell membrane ; Multi-pass membrane protein . Cytoplasm . Has to be associated with KCNB1 or possibly another partner to get inserted in the plasma membrane (PubMed:12060745). Colocalizes with KCNB1 at the plasma membrane (PubMed:12060745, PubMed:19074135). Remains intracellular in the absence of KCNB1 (PubMed:12060745). .
Expressed in the brain, liver, testis, small intestine, colon, thymus and adrenal gland (PubMed:11852086, PubMed:12060745).
