Gene name

KCNK9 (HGNC Symbol)

Synonyms

K2p9.1, TASK-3, TASK3

Description

Potassium channel, subfamily K, member 9 (HGNC Symbol)

Entrez gene summary

This gene encodes a protein that contains multiple transmembrane regions and two pore-forming P domains and functions as a pH-dependent potassium channel. Amplification and overexpression of this gene have been observed in several types of human carcinomas. This gene is imprinted in the brain, with preferential expression from the maternal allele. A mutation in this gene was associated with Birk-Barel mental retardation dysmorphism syndrome. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2013]
