Post Translational Modifications | Phosphorylation at Ser-668 by PRKG2 shifts the voltage-dependence to more negative voltages, hence counteracting the stimulatory effect of cGMP on gating. S-palmitoylated. N-glycosylated.required for cell surface trafficking of HCN2. |
Function | Hyperpolarization-activated ion channel that is permeable to sodium and potassium ions. Displays lower selectivity for K(+) over Na(+) ions. Contributes to the native pacemaker currents in heart (If) and in neurons (Ih). Can also transport ammonium in the distal nephron. Involved in the initiation of neuropathic pain in sensory neurons. |
