Other NameKCNK15; TASK5; Potassium channel subfamily K member 15; Acid-sensitive potassium channel protein TASK-5; TWIK-related acid-sensitive K(+) channel 5; Two pore potassium channel KT3.3; Two pore K(+) channel KT3.3
Functionfunction:Probable potassium channel subunit. No channel activity observed in heterologous systems. May need to associate with another protein to form a functional channel.,polymorphism:Three variant polypeptides are known: TASK-5A, TASK-5B and TASK-5C. The sequence shown is that of TASK-5C.,similarity:Belongs to the two pore domain potassium channel (TC 1.A.1.8) family.,subunit:Heterodimer .,tissue specificity:Detected in pancreas, heart, placenta, lung, liver, kidney, ovary, testis, skeletal muscle and adrenal gland, and at lower levels in prostate, spleen and thyroid gland.,
Subcellular LocationMembrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
ExpressionDetected in pancreas, heart, placenta, lung, liver, kidney, ovary, testis, skeletal muscle and adrenal gland, and at lower levels in prostate, spleen and thyroid gland.
Backgroundpotassium two pore domain channel subfamily K member 15(KCNK15) Homo sapiens This gene encodes one of the members of the superfamily of potassium channel proteins containing two pore-forming P domains. The product of this gene has not been shown to be a functional channel, however, it may require other non-pore-forming proteins for activity. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008],
