KCNN3 (SK3) codes for a voltage-independent, calcium-activated channel integral membrane protein. It may be involved in the modulation of neuronal excitability. KCNN3 has been linked to anorexia nervosa risk and atrial fibrillation. Rabbit Anti-KCNN3 antibody recognizes canine, human, mouse, rat, pig, and bovine KCNN3.
Immunogen
Synthetic peptide directed towards the C terminal region of human KCNN3
Application
Rabbit Anti-KCNN3 antibody is suitable for western blot assays at 2 μg/ml.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Action potentials in vertebrate neurons are followed by an afterhyperpolarization (AHP) that may persist for several seconds and may have profound consequences for the firing pattern of the neuron. Each component of the AHP is kinetically distinct and is mediated by different calcium-activated potassium channels. KCNN3, a member of the KCNN family of potassium channel genes, encodes a protein that is activated before membrane hyperpolarization and is thought to regulate neuronal excitability by contributing to the slow component of synaptic AHP. The encoded protein is an integral membrane protein that forms a voltage-independent calcium-activated channel with three other calmodulin-binding subunits.

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained arrhythmia. Previous studies have identified several genetic loci associated with typical AF. We sought to identify common genetic variants underlying lone AF. This condition affects a subset of individuals without overt heart

The human small-conductance Ca(2+)-activated potassium channel gene KCNN3 has been involved in mechanisms underlying neuronal function and plasticity. A multiallelic CAG repeat polymorphism within the KCNN3 has been associated with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. We have previously reported in a
