NCIt definition : Human KCNC1 wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 11p15.1 and is approximately
122 kb in length. This allele, which encodes potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily
C member 1 protein, plays a role in potassium transport that allows neurons to repolarize
in response to high frequency stimuli. A point mutation in the gene is associated
with progressive myoclonic epilepsy 7.;
