Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** 1. **Potassium Channel Function:** KCNA3 encodes a voltage-gated potassium channel that is involved in regulating potassium ion flux across the plasma membrane. 2. **Cell Type-Specific Expression:** The gene is significantly expressed in T-helper 22 cells, cardiac endothelial cells, and various subsets of T cells, highlighting its importance in immune function. 3. **Neuronal Expression:** KCNA3 is expressed in GABAergic interneurons and radial glial cells, suggesting its involvement in neuronal development and function. 4. **Voltage-Gated Kinetics:** The channel exhibits voltage-gated kinetics, allowing it to regulate potassium ion flux in response to changes in membrane potential. **Pathways and Functions:** 1. **Immune Response:** KCNA3 plays a crucial role in regulating the immune response by modulating potassium ion flux in T-helper 22 cells and other subsets of T cells. This, in turn, influences the activation and function of these cells. 2. **Neuronal Development:** The gene's expression in GABAergic interneurons and radial glial cells suggests its involvement in neuronal development and function. KCNA3 may regulate potassium ion flux in these cells, influencing their differentiation and migration. 3. **Cardiac Function:** KCNA3 is expressed in cardiac endothelial cells, and its dysfunction may contribute to cardiac arrhythmias and other cardiovascular disorders. 4. **Synaptic Transmission:** The channel's expression in presynaptic membranes and postsynaptic membranes suggests its involvement in regulating synaptic transmission. **Clinical Significance:** 1. **Immune-Mediated Disorders:** KCNA3 dysfunction may contribute to immune-mediated disorders, such as autoimmune diseases and allergies. 2. **Cardiovascular Disorders:** Mutations in the KCNA3 gene have been associated with cardiac arrhythmias and other cardiovascular disorders. 3. **Neurological Disorders:** KCNA3 dysfunction may contribute to neurological disorders, such as epilepsy and schizophrenia. 4. **Cancer:** The gene's expression in hematopoietic cells suggests its potential role in cancer development and progression. In conclusion, KCNA3 is a critical regulator of potassium channels in the immune system and the nervous system. Its dysfunction may contribute to a range of clinical disorders, highlighting the need for further research into the gene's role in maintaining immune homeostasis and neuronal function.
