Function | Pore-forming subunit of the voltage-gated potassium (Kv) channel broadly expressed in brain and involved in the regulation of neuronal excitability. Associates with KCNQ3/Kv7.3 pore-forming subunit to form a potassium channel which contributes to M-type current, a slowly activating and deactivating potassium conductance which plays a critical role in determining the subthreshold electrical excitability of neurons. Contributes, with other potassium channels, to the molecular diversity of a heterogeneous population of M-channels, varying in kinetic and pharmacological properties, which underlie this physiologically important current. Also forms a functional channel with KCNQ1/Kv7.1 subunit that may contribute to vasoconstriction and hypertension. Channel may be selectively permeable in vitro to other cations besides potassium, in decreasing order of affinity K(+) = Rb(+) > Cs(+) > Na(+). Similar to the native M-channel, KCNQ3-KCNQ5 potassium channel is suppressed by activation of the muscarinic acetylcholine receptor CHRM1. |
