GENE INFORMATION
Gene name	KCNJ9 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms	GIRK3, Kir3.3
Description	Potassium channel, inwardly rectifying subfamily J, member 9 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary	Potassium channels are present in most mammalian cells, where they participate in a wide range of physiologic responses. The protein encoded by this gene is an integral membrane protein and inward-rectifier type potassium channel. The encoded protein, which has a greater tendency to allow potassium to flow into a cell rather than out of a cell, is controlled by G-proteins. It associates with another G-protein-activated potassium channel to form a heteromultimeric pore-forming complex. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
