We report identification and characterization of
Kv6.3
, a novel member of the voltage-gated K(+) channel. Reverse
transcriptase
-polymerase chain reaction analysis indicated that
Kv6.3
was highly expressed in the brain. Electrophysiological studies indicated that homomultimeric
Kv6.3
did not yield a functional voltage-gated ion channel. When
Kv6.3
and Kv2.1 were co-expressed, the heteromultimeric channels displayed the decreased rate of deactivation compared to the homomultimeric Kv2.1 channels. Immunoprecipitation studies indicated that
Kv6.3
bound with Kv2.1 in co-transfected cells. These results indicate that
Kv6.3
is a novel member of the voltage-gated K(+) channel which functions as a modulatory subunit.
