Description

General description

KvLQT1(Kv7.1) is a voltage-gated potassium channel protein coded for by the gene KCNQ1. This protein is present in the cell membranes of cardiac muscle tissue and in inner ear neurons among other tissues. KvLQT1 can form heteromultimers with two other potassium channel proteins, KCNE1 and KCNE3 and in heart cells is required for the repolarization phase of the cardiac action potential. Mutations in the gene are associated with hereditary long QT syndrome, Romano-Ward syndrome, Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome and familial atrial fibrillation, lead to a defective KvLQT1 protein and several forms of inherited arrhythmias known as Long QT syndrome, Short QT syndrome, and Familial Atrial Fibrillation.
