SK - small conductance calcium-activated potassium channel

Enables photoreceptor activity and small conductance calcium-activated potassium channel activity. Involved in potassium ion transport and regulation of membrane potential in photoreceptor cell. Located in membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including adult brain; adult head; retina; sensory system neurons; and synaptic neuropil domain. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in myoclonic dystonia 34; paranoid schizophrenia; and schizophrenia. Orthologous to several human genes including KCNN2 (potassium calcium-activated channel subfamily N member 2) and KCNN3 (potassium calcium-activated channel subfamily N member 3).
