Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Predicted to enable several functions, including alpha-actinin binding activity; scaffold protein binding activity; and voltage-gated potassium channel activity. Acts upstream of or within Notch signaling pathway; regulation of membrane potential; and regulation of vasoconstriction. Located in intercalated disc and plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including gut; heart; metanephros; nervous system; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in familial atrial fibrillation and pulmonary hypertension. Orthologous to human KCNA5 (potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily A member 5).
