KCND2

Voltage-gated potassium (Kv) channels represent the most complex class of voltage-gated ion channels from both functional and structural standpoints. Their diverse functions include regulating neurotransmitter release, heart rate, insulin secretion, neuronal excitability, epithelial electrolyte transport, smooth muscle contraction, and cell volume. Four sequence-related potassium channel genes - shaker, shaw, shab, and shal - have been identified in Drosophila, and each has been shown to have human homolog(s). This gene encodes a member of the potassium channel, voltage-gated, shal-related subfamily, members of which form voltage-activated A-type potassium ion channels and are prominent in the repolarization phase of the action potential. This member mediates a rapidly inactivating, A-type outward potassium current which is not under the control of the N terminus as it is in Shaker channels.

Interaction

Homotetramer or heterotetramer with KCND1 or KCND3 (PubMed:14980201, PubMed:16934482, PubMed:24811166). Associates with the regulatory subunits KCNIP1, KCNIP2, KCNIP3 and KCNIP4 (PubMed:10676964, PubMed:11287421, PubMed:11847232, PubMed:12451113, PubMed:15358149, PubMed:14623880, PubMed:14980201, PubMed:14980207, PubMed:24811166). In vivo, probably exists as heteromeric complex containing variable proportions of KCND1, KCND2, KCND3, KCNIP1, KCNIP2, KCNIP3, KCNIP4, DPP6 and DPP10 (PubMed:19171772). The tetrameric channel can associate with up to four regulatory subunits, such as KCNIP2 or KCNIP4 (PubMed:14623880, PubMed:14980201, PubMed:24811166). Interaction with four KCNIP4 chains does not reduce interaction with DPP10 (PubMed:24811166). Interacts with DLG4 and NCS1/FREQ (By similarity). Interacts with DLG1 (PubMed:19213956). Probably part of a complex consisting of KCNIP1, KCNIP2 isoform 3 and KCND2 (PubMed:15358149). Interacts with FLNA, FLNC, DPP6 and DPP10 (PubMed:11102480, PubMed:15454437, PubMed:24811166).
