Other Information

**Key characteristics:** - KCNK3 is a pore-forming protein that belongs to the potassium channel superfamily. - It has two transmembrane domains: a pore domain and a regulatory domain. - The pore domain is responsible for the ion channel's gating, while the regulatory domain interacts with other proteins to modulate channel activity. - KCNK3 is a highly conserved protein with a wide expression in different tissues. **Pathways and functions:** - KCNK3 is involved in various cellular processes, including cardiac conduction, synaptic transmission, and muscle contraction. - In the heart, KCNK3 is expressed in cardiomyocytes and atrial and ventricular myocytes, where it contributes to the maintenance of normal heart rhythm and cardiac output. - In the central nervous system (CNS), KCNK3 is expressed in neurons, where it modulates synaptic transmission and neuronal excitability. - In the peripheral nervous system (PNS), KCNK3 is expressed in sensory neurons and autonomic neurons, where it contributes to the sensory function and the regulation of smooth muscle contractions. **Clinical significance:** - Mutations in KCNK3 have been linked to several human diseases, including hyperkalemia, heart failure, and epilepsy. - In these diseases, KCNK3 mutations can lead to abnormal potassium channel activity, resulting in cardiac arrhythmias, seizures, and other neurological symptoms. - Therefore, KCNK3 is a potential therapeutic target for treating these diseases. **Additional information:** - KCNK3 is a highly important ion channel in the human body. - It is a member of the potassium channel superfamily, which is the largest group of ion channels in the human body. - KCNK3 is a well-studied channel, with a wealth of literature describing its structure, function, and role in various physiological and pathological processes.
