Description
Predicted to have inward rectifier potassium channel activity. Predicted to be involved in potassium ion import across plasma membrane and regulation of ion transmembrane transport. Predicted to localize to integral component of membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Andersen-Tawil syndrome; familial atrial fibrillation; familial periodic paralysis; and short QT syndrome. Is expressed in atrium and cardiac ventricle. Orthologous to human KCNJ2 (potassium inwardly rectifying channel subfamily J member 2).
