Gene: KCNH2 (potassium voltage-gated channel, subfamily H (eag-related), member 2)  Homo sapiens

Symbol: KCNH2
Name: potassium voltage-gated channel, subfamily H (eag-related), member 2
Description: This gene encodes a voltage-activated potassium channel belonging to the eag family. It shares sequence similarity with the Drosophila ether-a-go-go (eag) gene. Mutations in this gene can cause long QT syndrome type 2 (LQT2). Transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Type: protein-coding
RefSeq Status: REVIEWED
