KIR3.2 Polyclonal Antibody, 50ul

This gene encodes a member of the G protein-coupled inwardly-rectifying potassium channel family of inward rectifier potassium channels. This type of potassium channel allows a greater flow of potassium into the cell than out of it. These proteins modulate many physiological processes| including heart rate in cardiac cells and circuit activity in neuronal cells| through G-protein coupled receptor stimulation. Mutations in this gene are associated with Keppen-Lubinsky Syndrome| a rare condition characterized by severe developmental delay| facial dysmorphism| and intellectual disability.
