Background：potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily E regulatory subunit 1(KCNE1) Homo sapiens The product of this gene belongs to the potassium channel KCNE family. Potassium ion channels are essential to many cellular functions and show a high degree of diversity, varying in their electrophysiologic and pharmacologic properties. This gene encodes a transmembrane protein known to associate with the product of the KVLQT1 gene to form the delayed rectifier potassium channel. Mutation in this gene are associated with both Jervell and Lange-Nielsen and Romano-Ward forms of long-QT syndrome. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008],

Function：disease:Defects in KCNE1 are the cause of Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome type 2 (JLNS2) [MIM:612347]. JLNS2 is 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.,disease:Defects in KCNE1 are the cause of long QT syndrome type 5 (LQT5) [MIM:176261]. Long QT syndromes are heart disorders 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. KCNE1 mutants form channels that open slowly and close rapidly, thereby diminishing potassium currents.,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 th
