name: voltage-gated potassium channel KCNV2
def: "A voltage-gated potassium channel alpha subunit that is a translation product of the human KCNV2 gene or a 1:1 ortholog thereof. Similarly to KCNF1, KCNV1 and KCNS, KCNV2 subunits are not able to form functional channels on their own. Also in common with these modulatory subunits, it lacks the conserved PxP motif located in the distal part of S6. In this class the motif is PIS. The alteration of the PxP motif seems to be an important determinant of the regulatory function of modulatory subunits." [PRO:CNA]
