Target/Specificity | This KCNG2 antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 149-177 amino acids from the Central region of human KCNG2. |
Dilution | WB~~1:1000 |
Format | Purified polyclonal antibody supplied in PBS with 0.09% (W/V) sodium azide. This antibody is purified through a protein A column, followed by peptide affinity purification. |
Storage | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 2 weeks. For long term storage store at -20°C in small aliquots to prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
Precautions | KCNG2 Antibody (Center) is for research use only and not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
Name | KCNG2 (HGNC:6249) |
---|---|
Function | Regulatory alpha-subunit of the voltage-gated potassium (Kv) channel which, when coassembled with KCNB1, can modulate the kinetics and conductance-voltage relationship (PubMed:10551266). Modulates channel activity by shifting the threshold and the half-maximal activation to more negative values (Probable). Potassium channel subunit that does not form functional channels by itself (Probable). |
Cellular Location | Cell membrane {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q14721}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P63142} |
Tissue Location | Highly expressed in heart, liver, skeletal muscle, kidney and pancreas. Detected at low levels in brain, lung and placenta. |

Background
Voltage-gated potassium (Kv) channels represent the most complex class of voltage-gated ion channels from both functional and structural standpoints. Their diverse functions include regulating neurotransmitter release, heart rate, insulin secretion, neuronal excitability, epithelial electrolyte transport, smooth muscle contraction, and cell volume. This gene encodes a member of the potassium channel, voltage-gated, subfamily G. This member is a gamma subunit of the voltage-gated potassium channel. The delayed-rectifier type channels containing this subunit may contribute to cardiac action potential repolarization. [provided by RefSeq].
