8.A.5.1.3
Chain A, β-subunit of 353 aas and possibly 3 C-terminal TMSs. The x-ray structure is available for this protein. The Kcnab2 ortholog in Danio rerio (Zebrafish) (Brachdanio rerio) (XP_009304567.1) is 85% identical to the rat homolog.  It belongs to the shaker potassium channel beta subunit family.  Genome analysis revealed that genetic structure is influenced by a variety of factors including salinity gradients, habitat distance, and ocean currents (Wang et al. 2024).
