- Description
- twk-13 encodes one of 44 C. elegans TWK (two-P domain K+) potassium channel subunits that contain two pore-forming domains and four transmembrane domains; as loss of TWK-13 function via RNA-mediated interference (RNAi) does not result in any abnormalities, the precise role of TWK-13 in C. elegans development and/or behavior is not yet known; however, TWK-13 likely functions redundantly with other TWK channels; the TWK-13 expression pattern has not been determined.
