Gene ID: 3775, updated on 5-Mar-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: DPK; HOHO; K2P1; KCNO1; TWIK1; K2p1.1; TWIK-1

Summary

This gene encodes one of the members of the superfamily of potassium channel proteins containing two pore-forming P domains. The product of this gene has not been shown to be a functional channel, however, it may require other non-pore-forming proteins for activity. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
