About This Section

Entrez Gene summary for KCNQ4:
The protein encoded by this gene forms a potassium channel that is thought to play a critical role in the regulation of
neuronal excitability, particularly in sensory cells of the cochlea. The current generated by this channel is
inhibited by M1 muscarinic acetylcholine receptors and activated by retigabine, a novel anti-convulsant drug. The
encoded protein can form a homomultimeric potassium channel or possibly a heteromultimeric channel in association with
the protein encoded by the KCNQ3 gene. Defects in this gene are a cause of nonsyndromic sensorineural deafness type 2
(DFNA2), an autosomal dominant form of progressive hearing loss. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms
have been found for this gene. (provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008)

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: KCNQ4_HUMAN, P56696
Function: Probably important in the regulation of neuronal excitability. May underlie a potassium current involved in
regulating the excitability of sensory cells of the cochlea. KCNQ4 channels are blocked by linopirdin, XE991 and
bepridil, whereas clofilium is without significant effect. Muscarinic agonist oxotremorine-M strongly suppress KCNQ4
current in CHO cells in which cloned KCNQ4 channels were coexpressed with M1 muscarinic receptors

  • Defects in KCNQ4 are the cause of deafness autosomal dominant type 2A (DFNA2A) [MIM:600101]. DFNA2A is a form
  • of sensorineural hearing loss. Sensorineural deafness results from damage to the neural receptors of the inner ear,
    the nerve pathways to the brain, or the area of the brain that receives sound information
