Background Information
Voltage-gated potassium or Kv channels, specifically those mediating low threshold, rapidly inactivating Ito and IA currents, are known to regulate cardiac and neuronal membrane excitability, respectively (PMID: 12829703). Voltage-gated potassium channel subunit Kv4.2, encoded by the KCND2 gene, belongs to the potassium channel family and D (Shal) subfamily. It is a pore-forming alpha subunit of voltage-gated rapidly inactivating A-type potassium channels. Kv4.2 is highly expressed in the brain (PMID: 10551270). It is a major constituent of A-type potassium currents and a key regulator of neuronal membrane excitability (PMID: 22539834).
