A majority of malignant cells were negative. A few adenocarcinomas displayed weak cytoplasmic immunoreactivity.
GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
KCNH7 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
erg3, HERG3, Kv11.3
Description
Potassium channel, voltage gated eag related subfamily H, member 7 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
Voltage-gated potassium (Kv) channels represent the most complex class of voltage-gated ion channels from both functional and structural standpoints. Their diverse functions include regulating neurotransmitter release, heart rate, insulin secretion, neuronal excitability, epithelial electrolyte transport, smooth muscle contraction, and cell volume. This gene encodes a member of the potassium channel, voltage-gated, subfamily H. This member is a pore-forming (alpha) subunit. There are at least two alternatively spliced transcript variants derived from this gene and encoding distinct isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
