General description

Voltage-gated potassium channel subunit beta-2, also known as Potassium Channel Kv-Beta-2 or K(+) channel subunit beta-2 or Kv-beta-2, and encoded by the gene Kcnab2/Ckbeta2/Kcnb3, is part of the multi-subunit complex that comprises the potassium ion channel. Potassium Channel Kv-Beta-2 modulates the activity of the pore-forming alpha subunit of the potassium channel. Additionally, Potassium Channel Kv-Beta-2 forms heteromultimeric complexes with not only alpha subunits but also with kinase complexes such as PRKCZ and sequestosome complexes SQSTM1. Potassium Channel Kv-Beta-2 is localized to the plasma membrane and cytoplasm.
