OverviewNCBI Gene
MaxiK channels are large conductance, voltage and calcium-sensitive potassium channels which are fundamental to the control of smooth muscle tone and neuronal excitability. MaxiK channels can be formed by 2 subunits: the pore-forming alpha subunit and the product of this gene, the modulatory beta subunit. Intracellular calcium regulates the physical association between the alpha and beta subunits. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis
Seroatlas reads KCNMB1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against KCNMB1 could matter depends on whether native KCNMB1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
KCNMB1 is annotated at the cell surface, where native KCNMB1 is exposed to circulating antibodies and is a prime autoantibody target that could block, deplete, or overstimulate it.
Annotation status
The present source text does not explicitly label KCNMB1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
