Function

Potassium channels are present in most mammalian cells, where they participate in a wide range of physiologic responses. The protein encoded by this gene is an integral membrane protein and inward-rectifier type potassium channel. The encoded protein, which has a greater tendency to allow potassium to flow into a cell rather than out of a cell, is controlled by G-proteins. It associates with another G-protein-activated potassium channel to form a heteromultimeric pore-forming complex.[7]

Interactions

KCNJ9 has been shown to interact with KCNJ6.[8][9]

gollark: If there wasn't that, I probably would have added a thing to isolate power from the main network and just run the storage bits.
gollark: Arguably, the system was quite overengineered.
gollark: It stores 2GRF and there's also a spare fusion reactor, so yes.
gollark: Yes, it has a spare battery because of previous power failures.
gollark: OreExcavate?
