  • Bio Background: Voltage-gated potassium (Kv) channels represent the mostcomplex class of voltage-gated ion channels from both functionaland structural standpoints. Their diverse functions includeregulating neurotransmitter release, heart rate, insulin secretion,neuronal excitability, epithelial electrolyte transport, smoothmuscle contraction, and cell volume. Four sequence-relatedpotassium channel genes - shaker, shaw, shab, and shal - have beenidentified in Drosophila, and each has been shown to have humanhomolog(s). This gene encodes a member of the potassium channel,voltage-gated, shaker-related subfamily. This member is one of thebeta subunits, which are auxiliary proteins associating withfunctional Kv-alpha subunits. This member and the KCNA5 geneproduct assemble into a heteromultimeric A-type channel thatinactivates completely and is significantly faster than otherA-type Kv channels.
