This protein has a molecular mass of approximately 74 kDa. Kv4.2 is expressed mainly in the brain especially in the hippocampus and cortex regions. The channel regulates the flow of potassium ions across the cell membrane which is essential for maintaining the resting membrane potential and modulating action potentials.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Kv4.2 protein contributes to the transient outward potassium current known as I_A. It often associates with other accessory proteins like KChIP and DPP10 to form functional Kv4.2 channel complexes. These complexes are critical in shaping the signal transmission in neurons affecting synaptic plasticity and neuronal excitability. Kv4.2's action impacts the duration and frequency of neuronal firing influencing functions such as memory and learning.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nKv4.2 is integral to the regulation of neuronal excitability in the context of signal transduction pathways. One well-studied pathway involves its role in the MAPK\/ERK signaling cascade where Kv4.2 undergoes phosphorylation events that fine-tune its activity. This pathway includes proteins like ERK which interacts with Kv4.2 to affect how neurons respond to synaptic inputs. Kv4.2 is also interconnected with CaMKII signaling which modulates its trafficking and expression in neurons.\u003cbr\u003e\nAlterations in Kv4.2 expression or function relate to neurological conditions such as epilepsy and spinocerebellar ataxia. In epilepsy abnormal Kv4.2 channel activity can lead to hyperexcitability of neurons contributing to seizure development. Interconnections with proteins like Nav1.1 influence these pathological conditions as they also regulate neuronal excitability. Furthermore mutations in Kv4.2 can disrupt normal neuronal signaling which could be implicated in spinocerebellar ataxia contributing to the range of motor coordination symptoms seen in these patients.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46851629383849,"sku":"ab307711","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/abcam-ab307711","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
