NCIt synonyms : Potassium Channel, Voltage-Gated, Shab-Related Subfamily, Member 1 Gene; DRK1; Potassium Voltage-Gated Channel Subfamily B Member 1 wt Allele; DEE26; Potassium Voltage-Gated Channel, Shab-Related Subfamily, Member 1 Gene; Kv2.1;
NCIt definition : Human KCNB1 wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 20q13.13 and is approximately
191 kb in length. This allele, which encodes potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily
B member 1 protein, plays a role in the modulation of repolarization, duration and
frequency of repetitive AP firing. Mutation of the gene is associated with developmental
and epileptic encephalopathy 26.;
