Regulation of Kv11.1 Isoform Expression by Polyadenylate Binding Protein Nuclear 1.

The Kv11.1 voltage-gated potassium channel, encoded by the KCNH2 gene, conducts the rapidly activating delayed rectifier current in the heart. KCNH2 pre-mRNA undergoes alternative polyadenylation to generate two C-terminal Kv11.
