Description
Predicted to have calmodulin binding activity and delayed rectifier potassium channel activity. Predicted to be involved in potassium ion transmembrane transport. Predicted to localize to voltage-gated potassium channel complex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in benign neonatal seizures and early infantile epileptic encephalopathy 7. Is expressed in central nervous system; heart; and inner ear. Orthologous to human KCNQ2 (potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily Q member 2).
