Physiological Functions Click here for help
Regulation of membrane potential and action potential frequency by modulation of delayed rectifier potassium current.
Kv9.2 modulates the activity of Kv2.1 and Kv2.2 subunits by changing kinetics and levels of expression and by shifting the half-inactivation potential to more polarized values. Kv9.1 enhances the single-channel conductance of Kv2.1.
Species:  Mouse
Tissue:  Xenopus laevis oocytes
