Description
Exhibits voltage-gated potassium channel activity. Involved in several processes, including heart contraction; membrane repolarization during cardiac muscle cell action potential; and regulation of ventricular cardiac muscle cell membrane repolarization. Predicted to localize to integral component of plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including cardiovascular system; digestive system; gill; immune system; and muscle. Used to study long QT syndrome and short QT syndrome. Orthologous to human KCNH6 (potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily H member 6).

Note
Deleted orthology to KCNH2 from Lagenheinrich et al (2003) based on new orthology information in Leong et al (2010). Assigned orthology to KCNH6 based on synteny presented in Leong et al.
