KCNE3 (also known as MiRP2) is an ancillary protein that functions as a beta subunit with a voltage-gated potassium channel complex of pore-forming alpha subunits. It modulates the gating kinetics of the complex, as well as enhancing channel stability. The complex of KCNE3 with KCNQ1/KCLQT1 is postulated form the intestinal cAMP-stimulated potassium channel that is involved in chloride secretion. KCNE3 in complex with KCNC4/Kv3.4 is thought to form the subthreshold voltage-gated potassium channel that establishes the resting membrane potential in skeletal muscle. Altered activity of the KCNE3/Kv3.4 channel induced by the Abeta peptide is thought to result in the upregulation of the transient outward potassium current, a significant step in the etiology of Alzheimers disease.
