PROTEIN
PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
STRUCTURE
motifs/domains
  • cytosolic N terminus domain, highly conserved, controlling desactivation by association with K+ channel,
  • six membrane spanning domains with an hydrophobic pore flanked by TM domains 5 and 6
  • arginine-rich fourth TM domain controling voltage dependent gating,
  • one cyclic nucleotide-binding domain
  • one PAS (per-arnt-sim) dimerization domain.
  • one PAS-associated c-terminal (PAC) domain
  • C-terminal region containing a cyclic-nucleotide-binding homology domain (CNBHD), and C-linker that couples the CNBHD to the pore
  • and a large intracellular carboxy-terminal region that shares structural similarity with cyclic nucleotide-binding homology domains (CNBHD

  • RABEP1, KCNH1 co-localize on large early endosomes induced by RAB5 hyperactivity
  • expressed at the inner nuclear membrane
  • basic FUNCTION
  • pore-forming (alpha) subunit of voltage-gated non- inactivating delayed rectifier potassium channel
  • implicated in neuronal signaling as well as in cancer cell proliferation
  • might participate potentially in the homeostasis of nuclear K(+), or indirectly interact with heterochromatin, both factors known to affect gene expression
  • its channel activity is regulated by EGFR kinase at the tyrosine residues Tyr90, Try344, and Try485, effect likely involved in regulating neuronal activity and/or tumor growth
  • participates in cancer initiation and tumor progression

  • S100B is a potential alternative calcium sensor for KCNH1 potassium channel
  • physical and functional interaction between CTTN and KCNH1 (controls the abundance of KCNH1 at the plasma membrane and is required for functional expression of KCNH1 channels)
  • should be considered as a possible target for the physiological effects of flavonoids
  • cell & other
