Family: Potassium channel KCNE family
Function:
Ancillary protein that assembles as a beta subunit with a voltage-gated potassium channel complex of pore-forming alpha subunits. Modulates the gating kinetics and enhances stability of the channel complex. Assembled with KCNB1 modulates the gating characteristics of the delayed rectifier voltage-dependent potassium channel KCNB1 (PubMed:19219384). Assembled with KCNQ1/KVLQT1 is proposed to form the slowly activating delayed rectifier cardiac potassium (IKs) channel. The outward current reaches its steady state only after 50 seconds. Assembled with KCNH2/HERG may modulate the rapidly activating component of the delayed rectifying potassium current in heart (IKr). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19219384}.

Involvement in disease:
Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome 2 (JLNS2) [MIM:612347]: An autosomal recessive disorder characterized by congenital deafness, prolongation of the QT interval, syncopal attacks due to ventricular arrhythmias, and a high risk of sudden death. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10400998, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21676880, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9328483, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9354783}. Note=The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.; Long QT syndrome 5 (LQT5) [MIM:613695]: A heart disorder characterized by a prolonged QT interval on the ECG and polymorphic ventricular arrhythmias. They cause syncope and sudden death in response to exercise or emotional stress, and can present with a sentinel event of sudden cardiac death in infancy. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10400998, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10973849, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11692163, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16414944, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19716085, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25037568, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9354802, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9445165}.
