Protein-coding gene in the species Homo sapiens
Potassium channel subfamily T, member 2 , also known as KCNT2 is a human
gene that encodes the KNa
protein . KCNT2, also known as the Slick channel (sequence like an intermediate calcium channel) is an outwardly rectifying potassium channel activated by internal raises in sodium or chloride ions.
