Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** 1. **Channel Subunit:** KCNA7 is a pore-forming subunit of the voltage-gated potassium channel, which assembles with other subunits to form functional channels. 2. **Delayed Rectifier Potassium Channel:** KCNA7 is a key component of delayed rectifier potassium channels, which are responsible for regulating the resting membrane potential and repolarizing the action potential. 3. **High Expression in Neuronal and Intestinal Cells:** KCNA7 is highly expressed in various cell types, including cerebral cortex GABAergic interneurons, forebrain radial glial cells, and intestinal epithelial cells, highlighting its widespread importance in cellular function. 4. **Protein Homooligomerization:** KCNA7 can form homooligomers with itself, which is essential for the assembly and function of voltage-gated potassium channels. **Pathways and Functions:** 1. **Voltage-Gated Potassium Channel Activity:** KCNA7 is involved in the assembly and function of voltage-gated potassium channels, which regulate membrane excitability and maintain proper ion balance across cell membranes. 2. **Neuronal System:** KCNA7 plays a crucial role in the development and function of the nervous system, particularly in regulating the excitability of GABAergic interneurons. 3. **Intestinal Epithelium:** KCNA7 is highly expressed in intestinal epithelial cells, where it regulates the secretion of potassium ions and maintains proper ion balance across the epithelium. 4. **Immune Cell Development:** KCNA7 is also involved in the development and function of immune cells, including granulocyte monocyte progenitor cells and early T lineage precursors. **Clinical Significance:** 1. **Neurological Disorders:** Mutations in KCNA7 have been linked to various neurological disorders, including epilepsy, ataxia, and schizophrenia. 2. **Intestinal Diseases:** KCNA7 dysfunction has been implicated in intestinal diseases, such as inflammatory bowel disease and irritable bowel syndrome. 3. **Immune System Dysregulation:** KCNA7 plays a crucial role in the development and function of immune cells, and its dysfunction has been linked to immune system dysregulation and autoimmune diseases. 4. **Cancer:** KCNA7 has been implicated in the development and progression of various cancers, including colorectal cancer, where it regulates cell growth and proliferation. In conclusion, KCNA7 is a critical component of voltage-gated potassium channels, playing a pivotal role in regulating membrane excitability, maintaining proper ion balance, and developing and functioning various tissues. Its dysfunction has been linked to various diseases, highlighting the importance of understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying KCNA7 function and its clinical significance.
