Background
| Function | FUNCTION: Cytoplasmic potassium channel subunit that modulates the characteristics of the channel-forming alpha-subunits (PubMed:7649300, PubMed:11825900). Contributes to the regulation of nerve signaling, and prevents neuronal hyperexcitability (By similarity). Promotes expression of the pore-forming alpha subunits at the cell membrane, and thereby increases channel activity (By similarity). Promotes potassium channel closure via a mechanism that does not involve physical obstruction of the channel pore (PubMed:7649300, PubMed:11825900). Promotes KCNA4 channel closure (PubMed:7649300, PubMed:11825900). Modulates the functional properties of KCNA5 (By similarity). Enhances KCNB2 channel activity (By similarity). Binds NADPH and has NADPH-dependent aldoketoreductase activity (By similarity). Has broad substrate specificity and can catalyze the reduction of methylglyoxal, 9,10-phenanthrenequinone, prostaglandin J2, 4-nitrobenzaldehyde, 4-nitroacetophenone and 4-oxo-trans-2-nonenal (in vitro) (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P62482, ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P62483, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11825900, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7649300}. |

| Tissue Specificity | Detected in myelinated nerve fibers in the spinal cord, in the juxtaparanodal region of the nodes of Ranvier, but also in the paranodal region (PubMed:11086297). Detected in hippocampus (at protein level) (PubMed:21357749). Detected in hippocampus (PubMed:7649300). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11086297, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21357749, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7649300}. |
