KCNK6( Human )
potassium two pore domain channel subfamily K member 6
Alias
K2p6.1|KCNK8|TOSS|TWIK-2|TWIK2
This gene encodes one of the members of the superfamily of potassium channel proteins containing two pore-forming P domains. This channel protein, considered an open rectifier, is widely expressed. It is stimulated by arachidonic acid, and inhibited by internal acidification and volatile anaesthetics. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008].
