Potassium channel, subfamily K, member 7, also known asKCNK7 orK2P7.1 is aprotein which is encoded in humans by theKCNK7gene. K2P7.1 is apotassium channel containing two pore-forming P domains.[5][6][7] Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[8]
This gene encodes a member of the superfamily ofpotassium channel proteins containingtwo pore-forming P domains. The product of this gene has not been shown to be a functional channel; It may require other non-pore-forming proteins for activity.[8]
