KCNJ2 is a gene encoding an inward-rectifier potassium ion channel.
A defect in this gene is associated with Andersen-Tawil syndrome.
Stretch-activated ion channel - Ligand-gated ion channel - Voltage-gated ion channel
Ca: Voltage-dependent calcium channel (L-type/CACNA1C, N-type, P-type, Q-type, R-type, T-type) - Inositol triphosphate receptor - Ryanodine receptor - Cation channels of sperm
Na: Sodium channel: SCN4A - SCN5A - SCN9A - Epithelial sodium channel /Amiloride-sensitive sodium channel
K: Potassium channel: Voltage-gated (KvLQT1, HERG, Shaker gene, KCNE1) - Calcium-activated (BK channel, SK channel) - Inward-rectifier (ROMK, KCNJ2) - Tandem pore domain/Resting ion channel
Cl: Chloride channel: Cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator
Transient receptor potential (TRPV6) - Cyclic nucleotide-gated ion channel - Two-pore channel
