KCNJ13 is a gene that encodes a protein known as a potassium ion channel. This protein is part of the inward rectifier potassium channel family. KCNJ13 is primarily expressed in retinal tissues and plays a crucial role in maintaining the electrochemical gradient across cell membranes, which is vital for various cellular functions including the regulation of electrical activity in neurons and cardiac cells.
