Post Translational Modifications | N-glycosylation is necessary for targeting to lysosomes. |
Function | K(+) channel that conducts outward rectifying currents at the membranes of the endolysosomal system. Active in lysosomes where it regulates lysosome numbers and size. In macrophages, enables K(+) efflux coupled to ATP-induced NLRP3 inflammasome activation upon bacterial infection. Cooperates with ATP-gated P2RX7 channels to activate NLRP3 inflammasome, with P2RX7 conducting Ca(2+) and Na(+) influx that sets the membrane potential for K(+) efflux. Isoform 2: Does not display channel activity. |
