KCNH8 is a gene that encodes a protein belonging to the potassium channel family, specifically to the voltage-gated potassium channel subfamily H. These proteins are involved in various physiological processes by facilitating the flow of potassium ions across the cell membrane, which helps regulate electrical activity in cells, including neurons and muscle cells. The KCNH8 protein is believed to play a role in the repolarization phase of action potentials, essential for maintaining the normal electrical activity of cells.
