Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionslo-2 encodes a high conductance, sodium-activated potassium channel; when expressed in Xenopus oocytes, SLO-2 exhibits a synergistic dependence on both chloride and calcium ions for activation; expression of a dominant negative SLO-2 mutant can interfere with activity of SLO-1, a second high conductance potassium channel, suggesting that the two channels can form functional heteromultimers; a SLO-2::GFP fusion protein is expressed in body wall, vulval, and pharyngeal/intestinal valve muscles, nerve ring processes, and some motor neurons in the ventral nerve cord; SLO-2 expression largely overlaps with that of SLO-1.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00004344

Automated_descriptionEnables calcium-activated potassium channel activity and outward rectifier potassium channel activity. Involved in positive regulation of neurotransmitter secretion and potassium ion transport. Located in axon. Expressed in amphid neurons; body wall musculature; motor neurons; nerve ring; and vulval muscle. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal dominant nocturnal frontal lobe epilepsy 5; developmental and epileptic encephalopathy 14; and developmental and epileptic encephalopathy 57. Is an ortholog of human KCNT1 (potassium sodium-activated channel subfamily T member 1) and KCNT2 (potassium sodium-activated channel subfamily T member 2).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00065943

RemarkMap position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.CGC_data_submission
