Other Information

**Key characteristics:** * KCNJ5 is a transmembrane protein that is expressed in the plasma membrane. * It is a member of the potassium inwardly rectifying channel family of proteins. * It is a G protein-activated inward rectifier potassium channel. * It is significantly expressed in cardiac muscle cells. **Pathways and functions:** * KCNJ5 is involved in the regulation of heart rate by controlling the opening and closing of potassium channels in the heart. * It is activated by G protein-mediated signaling pathways. * It is involved in the inhibition of voltage-gated calcium channels, which can lead to a decrease in heart rate. * It is also involved in the regulation of monoatomic ion transmembrane transport, which can also affect heart rate. **Clinical significance:** * Mutations in the KCNJ5 gene have been linked to a number of human diseases, including hyperkalemia, heart failure, and stroke. * KCNJ5 is a potential therapeutic target for these diseases. **Other important points:** * KCNJ5 is a highly conserved protein, with a sequence that is similar in humans and mice. * It is a key player in the regulation of cardiac function. * It is a potential target for the treatment of a variety of cardiovascular diseases.
