Potassium channels are present in most mammalian cells, where they participate in a wide range of physiologic responses.
The protein encoded by this gene is an integral membrane protein and inward-rectifier type potassium channel.
The encoded protein KCNJ3, which has a greater tendency to allow potassium to flow into a cell rather than out of a cell, is controlled by G-proteins and plays an important role in regulating heartbeat.
It associates with three other G-protein-activated potassium channels to form a heteromultimeric pore-forming complex that also couples to neurotransmitter receptors in the brain and whereby channel activation can inhibit action potential firing by hyperpolarizing the plasma membrane.
These multimeric G-protein-gated inwardly-rectifying potassium (GIRK) channels may play a role in the pathophysiology of epilepsy, addiction, Down's syndrome, ataxia, and Parkinson's disease.
Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding distinct proteins.
