May modulate urinary K+ excretion in animal models; leaves open MiRP3-BK roles in human electrolyte disorders.
MiRP3 acts as an accessory subunit for the BK potassium channel in renal intercalated cells, modulating its current density and degradation, which may influence urinary potassium excretion.
Lévy et al. (2008) studied this question.
