1.A.1.2.9
Brain-specific regulatory α-chain homologue that coassembles with other α-subunits to form active heteromultimeric K+ channels of unique kinetic properties, Kv2.3r. The functional expression of this regulatory α-subunit represents a novel mechanism without precedents in voltage-gated channels, which contributes to the functional diversity of K+ channels (Castellano et al., 1997). Beta subunits regulate the response of human Kv4.3 to protein kinae C phosphorylation and provide a potential mechanism for modifying the response of ion conductance to alpha-adrenergic regulation in vivo (Abbott 2017).
