Structural highlights

Disease

[KCNK9_HUMAN] Intellectual deficit, Birk-Barel type. Birk-Barel mental retardation dysmorphism syndrome (BIBAS) [MIM:612292]: A syndrome characterized by mental retardation, hypotonia, hyperactivity, and facial dysmorphism. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.^[1]

Function

[1433S_HUMAN] Adapter protein implicated in the regulation of a large spectrum of both general and specialized signaling pathways. Binds to a large number of partners, usually by recognition of a phosphoserine or phosphothreonine motif. Binding generally results in the modulation of the activity of the binding partner. When bound to KRT17, regulates protein synthesis and epithelial cell growth by stimulating Akt/mTOR pathway (By similarity). p53-regulated inhibitor of G2/M progression. [KCNK9_HUMAN] pH-dependent, voltage-insensitive, background potassium channel protein.^{[2] [3]}
