| Biologically Significant Variant Comments |
| A total of 173 SNPs have been identified in human KCNV1. For more information please see the entry on GeneCards. |
| General Comments |
| Despite sequence identity with other K+channel genes, KCNV1 does not display K+ channel activity when expressed in Xenopus laevis oocytes, instead inhibiting activity of Kv2 and Kv3 channels. |
