| Immunogen: |
A synthetic peptide from the n-terminal of human KCNAB1 (Voltage-gated potassium channel subunit beta-1) conjugated to an immunogenic carrier protein was used as the antigen. |
| Function | Regulatory subunit of the voltage-gated potassium (Kv) Shaker channels composed of pore-forming and potassium-conducting alpha subunits and of regulatory beta subunits. The beta-1/KCNAB1 cytoplasmic subunit mediates closure of delayed rectifier potassium channels by physically obstructing the pore via its N-terminal domain and increases the speed of channel closure for other family members. Promotes the inactivation of Kv1.1/KCNA1, Kv1.2/KCNA2, Kv1.4/KCNA4, Kv1.5/KCNA5 and Kv1.6/KCNA6 alpha subunit-containing channels. Displays nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH)-dependent aldoketoreductase activity by catalyzing the NADPH-dependent reduction of a variety of endogenous aldehydes and ketones. The binding of NADPH is required for efficient down-regulation of potassium channel activity. Oxidation of the bound NADPH restrains N-terminal domain from blocking the channel, thereby decreasing N-type inactivation of potassium channel activity. Isoform KvB1.2: Isoform KvB1.2 shows no effect on KCNA1, KCNA2 or KCNB1. |
