EXACT: voltage-dependent potassium channel protein; voltage-gated potassium ion channel protein; voltage-sensitive potassium channel protein
Definition A potassium channel protein that has voltage-gated potassium channel activity. A voltage-gated potassium channel enables the transmembrane transfer of a potassium ion by a voltage-gated channel. A voltage-gated channel enables the transmembrane transfer of a solute by a channel whose open state is dependent on the voltage across the membrane in which it is embedded. [GO:0005249, PRO:XQ]
