HCN2 wt Allele

**Semantic type:** Gene or Genome

**Definition:** Human HCN2 wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 19p13.3 and is approximately 27 kb in length. This allele, which encodes potassium/sodium hyperpolarization-activated cyclic nucleotide-gated channel 2 protein, plays a role in the transport of sodium and potassium anions. Mutations in the gene are associated with familial febrile seizures 2, idiopathic generalized epilepsy 17 and generalized epilepsy with febrile seizures plus, type 11.
