KCNQ2

KCNQ2, also called kv7.2, is a potassium channel protein coded for by the gene KCNQ2. It is mapped to 20q13.33. The KCNQ2 gene encodes a voltage-gated potassium channel that is expressed in the brain. Expression of human KCNQ2 in Xenopus laevis oocytes led to potassium-selective currents that activated slowly with depolarization. Defects in this gene are a cause of benign familial neonatal convulsions type 1 (BFNC), also known as epilepsy, benign neonatal type 1 (EBN1). At least five transcript variants encoding five different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Each vial contains 4mg Trehalose, 0.9mg NaCl, 0.2mg Na2HPO4.

Add 0.2ml of distilled water will yield a concentration of 500ug/ml.

Cell membrane. Single-pass type II membrane protein. Secreted.

Isoform 1 seems to be most abundant in each tissue and isoform 2 much less abundant. Isoform 1 is highly expressed in skeletal muscle and lung, and to a lesser extent in heart, brain and kidney. Isoform 2 was found in brain, lung kidney and genital organs.
