GENE - CHEMICAL INTERACTIONS REPORT

RGD ID: 61971
Species: Rattus norvegicus
RGD Object: Gene
Symbol: Kcnj5
Name: potassium inwardly-rectifying channel, subfamily J, member 5
Acc ID: CHEBI:4887
Term: ethosuximide
Definition: Pyrrolidine-2,5-dione in which the hydrogens at position 3 are substituted by one methyl and one ethyl group. An antiepileptic, it is used in the treatment of absence seizures and may be used for myoclonic seizures, but is ineffective against tonic-clonic seizures.
CasRN: 77-67-8
Chemical ID: MESH:D005013
Note: Use of the qualifier "multiple interactions" designates that the annotated interaction is comprised of a complex set of reactions and/or regulatory events, possibly involving additional chemicals and/or gene products.
