Synonyms
  • GIRK1-GIRK4 G protein-coupled atrial inward rectifier potassium channel complex
  • Kir3.1-Kir3.4 G protein-coupled atrial inward rectifier potassium channel complex
  • muscarinic potassium channel complex
Definition
An inward rectifier potassium channel complex expressed in cardiac muscle, specifically the sinoatrial node and atria, where it controls the heart rate, via regulation by G protein-coupled receptor signaling. In mammals it is composed of GIRK1 (or Kir3.1) and GIRK4 (or Kir3.4) subunits. 9765280
