Function
KCNJ9_RAT This receptor is controlled by G proteins. Inward rectifier potassium channels are characterized by a greater tendency to allow potassium to flow into the cell rather than out of it. Their voltage dependence is regulated by the concentration of extracellular potassium; as external potassium is raised, the voltage range of the channel opening shifts to more positive voltages. The inward rectification is mainly due to the blockage of outward current by internal magnesium (By similarity).SNX27_RAT Involved in endocytic trafficking (By similarity). In T lymphocytes, participates in endocytic recycling pathway. Recruits PSCDBP and HT4R to early endosomes (By similarity).
