Term Name: voltage-gated potassium channel activity
Synonyms: voltage gated potassium channel activity, voltage-dependent potassium channel activity, voltage-gated potassium ion channel activity, voltage-sensitive potassium channel
Definition: Enables the transmembrane transfer of a potassium ion by a voltage-gated channel. A voltage-gated channel is a channel whose open state is dependent on the voltage across the membrane in which it is embedded.
