Einwärtsgerichteter Kaliumkanal KCNJ5

Das KCNJ5-Gen kodiert einen einwärts gerichteten Kaliumkanal, der auf vielen Zellmembranen vorkommen kann. Besondere physiologische Bedeutung besitzt dieser Kanal für die Aldosteron sezernierenden Zellen der Zona glomerulosa der Nebenniere und bei der Reizbildung im Herzen. In der Nebenieren steuert der Kanal die Aldosteronsekretion in Abhängigkeit von der extrazellulären Kaliumkonzentration. Es werden nicht nur somatische Mutationen in Aldoseronproduzierenden Tumoren der Nebenierenrinde gefunden. Keimbahnmutationen führen zu primären Hyperaldosteronismus Typ 3 und zum Long-QT-Syndrom Typ 13.
