FunFam 119: Potassium channel subfamily K member

Please note: GO annotations are assigned to the full protein sequence rather than individual protein domains. Since a given protein can contain multiple domains, it is possible that some of the annotations below come from additional domains that occur in the same protein, but have been classified elsewhere in CATH.

There are 3 GO terms relating to "molecular function"

The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.
GO Term Annotations Evidence
Potassium channel activity GO:0005267
Enables the facilitated diffusion of a potassium ion (by an energy-independent process) involving passage through a transmembrane aqueous pore or channel without evidence for a carrier-mediated mechanism.
4 Q3TBV4 (/ISO) Q3TQ68 (/ISO) Q3V1G1 (/ISO) Q8BZ22 (/ISO)
Inward rectifier potassium channel activity GO:0005242
Enables the transmembrane transfer of a potassium ion by an inwardly-rectifying voltage-gated channel. An inwardly rectifying current-voltage relation is one where at any given driving force the inward flow of K+ ions exceeds the outward flow for the opposite driving force. The inward-rectification is due to a voltage-dependent block of the channel pore by a specific ligand or ligands, and as a result the macroscopic conductance depends on the difference between membrane voltage and the K+ equilibrium potential rather than on membrane voltage itself.
2 Q9Y257 (/TAS) Q9Y257 (/TAS)
Potassium channel activity GO:0005267
Enables the facilitated diffusion of a potassium ion (by an energy-independent process) involving passage through a transmembrane aqueous pore or channel without evidence for a carrier-mediated mechanism.

There are 5 GO terms relating to "biological process"

The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.
GO Term Annotations Evidence
Regulation of systemic arterial blood pressure GO:0003073
The process that modulates the force with which blood travels through the systemic arterial circulatory system. The process is controlled by a balance of processes that increase pressure and decrease pressure.
4 Q3TBV4 (/IMP) Q3TQ68 (/IMP) Q3V1G1 (/IMP) Q8BZ22 (/IMP)
Negative regulation of systemic arterial blood pressure GO:0003085
The process that reduces the force with which blood travels through the systemic arterial circulatory system.
4 Q3TBV4 (/IMP) Q3TQ68 (/IMP) Q3V1G1 (/IMP) Q8BZ22 (/IMP)
Regulation of resting membrane potential GO:0060075
Any process that modulates the establishment or extent of a resting potential, the electrical charge across the plasma membrane, with the interior of the cell negative with respect to the exterior. The resting potential is the membrane potential of a cell that is not stimulated to be depolarized or hyperpolarized.
4 Q3TBV4 (/IMP) Q3TQ68 (/IMP) Q3V1G1 (/IMP) Q8BZ22 (/IMP)
Potassium ion transport GO:0006813
The directed movement of potassium ions (K+) into, out of or within a cell, or between cells, by means of some agent such as a transporter or pore.
2 Q9Y257 (/TAS) Q9Y257 (/TAS)
Cardiac conduction GO:0061337
Transfer of an organized electrical impulse across the heart to coordinate the contraction of cardiac muscles. The process begins with generation of an action potential (in the sinoatrial node (SA) in humans) and ends with a change in the rate, frequency, or extent of the contraction of the heart muscles.

There are 2 GO terms relating to "cellular component"

The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.
GO Term Annotations Evidence
Plasma membrane GO:0005886
The membrane surrounding a cell that separates the cell from its external environment. It consists of a phospholipid bilayer and associated proteins.
2 Q9Y257 (/TAS) Q9Y257 (/TAS)
Voltage-gated potassium channel complex GO:0008076
A protein complex that forms a transmembrane channel through which potassium ions may cross a cell membrane in response to changes in membrane potential.
