Potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily A member 1 (Kv1.1)

Target
Kv1.1
Molecular classification
Ion channel, Voltage-gated potassium channel
01

Overview

Potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily A member 1 (Kv1.1) is a voltage-gated potassium channel that plays a crucial role in repolarizing neuronal membranes after action potentials, thereby controlling neuronal excitability and firing patterns. It forms tetrameric potassium-selective channels allowing potassium ions to pass through the cell membrane. Mutations or autoimmune reactions targeting Kv1.1 are associated with neurological disorders like Isaacs syndrome and episodic ataxia/myokymia syndromes.
