Other Information

**Key characteristics:** * The KCNA1 gene is located on chromosome 17q21.1. * The protein is a single-pass transmembrane protein with a molecular weight of approximately 140 kDa. * The protein is expressed in high levels in blood vessel endothelial cells, erythrocytes, plasma cells, cardiac endothelial cells, L5 extratelencephalic projecting glutamatergic cortical neuron, retinal ganglion cell, corticothalamic-projecting glutamatergic cortical neuron, megakaryocyte, goblet cell, and cardiac muscle myoblast. **Pathways and functions:** * The KCNA1 gene is involved in cell communication by electrical coupling. * The protein is a key component of the delayed rectifier potassium channel, which is responsible for regulating the flow of potassium ions down their concentration gradient. * The protein is also involved in the regulation of presynaptic and postsynaptic membrane potentials. * The protein is important for regulating muscle contraction, the startle response, and the regulation of the visual system. **Clinical significance:** * Mutations in the KCNA1 gene have been linked to a number of human diseases, including epilepsy, heart disease, and stroke. * The KCNA1 gene is a promising target for the treatment of these diseases.
