Predicted molecular weight: 43 kDa. IHC-Fr 1/100. Target Function May be responsible for potassium buffering action of glial cells in the brain. Inward rectifier potassium channels are characterized by a greater tendency to allow potassium to flow into the 1 cell rather than out of it. Their voltage dependence is regulated by the concentration of extracellular potassium; as external potassium is raised, the voltage range of the channel opening shifts to more positive voltages. The inward rectification is mainly due to the blockage of outward current by internal magnesium. Can be blocked by extracellular barium and cesium. Involvement in disease Defects in KCNJ10 are the cause of seizures-sensorineural deafness-ataxia-mental retardationelectrolyte imbalance (SESAME) [MIM:612780]. A complex disorder characterized by generalized seizures with onset in infancy, delayed psychomotor development, ataxia, sensorineural hearing loss, hypokalemia, metabolic alkalosis, and hypomagnesemia. Sequence similarities Belongs to the inward rectifier-type potassium channel (TC 1.A.2.1) family. KCNJ10 subfamily. Cellular localization Membrane. Anti-Kir4.1 antibody images ab130707 staining Kir4.1 in zebrafish retina sections by IHC-Fr. The tissue was fixed with paraformaldehyde and an antigen retrieval step was performed with sodium citrate pH 6. Blocking of the sample was done with 5% BSA in PBS containing 01% Tween 20 and 0.5% Triton X, for 60 minutes at 23°C, followed by staining with ab130707 at 1/100 in blocking solution for 16h at 4°C. An alexa 488 conjugated goat anti-rabbit polyclonal antibody at 1/1000 was used as the Immunohistochemistry (Frozen sections) - AntiKir4.1 antibody (ab130707) This image is courtesy of an Abreview submitted by Dr Ryan MacDonald secondary antibody. Nuclei are stained in blue with DAPI. Kir4.1 expression can be observed in Muller cells (in green).
