KV1.1 polyclonal antibody, anti-human, mouse, rat

Background:
KCNA1 encodes a voltage-gated delayed potassium channel that is phylogenetically related to the Drosophila Shaker channel. Potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily A member 1 has six putative transmembrane segments (S1-S6), and the loop between S5 and S6 forms the pore and contains the conserved selectivity filter motif (GYGD). The functional channel is a homotetramer. The N-terminus of the channel is associated with beta subunits that can modify the inactivation properties of the channel as well as affect expression levels. The C-terminus of the channel is complexed to a PDZ domain protein that is responsible for channel targeting. Mutations in this gene have been associated with myokymia with periodic ataxia (AEMK).
