No immediate clinical implications; leaves open functional roles of CID1-3 in human KATP channelopathies.
Identifies multiple interaction domains between the N- and C-termini of the Kir6.2 potassium channel, providing insight into channel assembly and gating.
Jones et al. (2001) studied this question. In vitro protein-protein interaction assays identified multiple interaction domains within the C-terminus of Kir6.2 (CID1, CID2, and CID3) that interact with the N-terminus.
