Function |
Pore-forming (alpha) subunit of a voltage-gated delayed rectifier potassium channel (PubMed:22732247). Channel properties may be modulated by subunit assembly, but not by cyclic nucleotides (By similarity). Mediates IK(NI) current in myoblasts (PubMed:9738473). Involved in the regulation of cell proliferation and differentiation, in particular adipogenic and osteogenic differentiation in bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) (PubMed:23881642). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q60603, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22732247, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23881642, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9738473}.

Cell membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21559285, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22732247, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22841712}; Multi- pass membrane protein {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21559285}. Nucleus inner membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21559285}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21559285}. Early endosome membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22841712}. Note=Perinuclear KCNH1 is located to NPC-free islands.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Highly expressed in brain and in myoblasts at the onset of fusion, but not in other tissues. Detected in HeLa (cervical carcinoma), SH-SY5Y (neuroblastoma) and MCF-7 (epithelial tumor) cells, but not in normal epithelial cells.
