KCNH8
KCNH8 (Voltage-gated delayed rectifier potassium channel KCNH8) is a gene. The public catalogues list it as a drug target, and an approved or late-stage drug is recorded against it. This dossier gathers the 0 products (0 approved), 0 trials, 0 pathways and 0 resistance routes in the corpus that involve it, with external identifiers so it can be joined to UniProt, ChEMBL, Open Targets and the rest of biology.
Biology
Pore-forming (alpha) subunit of a voltage-gated delayed rectifier potassium channel that mediates outward-rectifying potassium currents. Elicits a slowly activating, non-inactivating and slowly deactivation outwards potassium current at depolarizating voltages from -30 mV to +50mV. Shows no obvious change in the activation rate from different holding potentials. Activation is strongly dependent on the pH of the external solution. Location: Membrane (UniProt). Locus 3p24.3 (HGNC).
