Associates with KCNQ2 or KCNQ5 to form a potassium channel with essentially identical properties to the channel underlying the native M-current, a slowly activating and deactivating potassium conductance which plays a critical role in determining the subthreshold electrical excitability of neurons as well as the responsiveness to synaptic inputs. Therefore, it is important in the regulation of neuronal excitability. KCNQ2-KCNQ3 channel is selectively permeable to other cations besides potassium, in decreasing order of affinity K(+) > Rb(+) > Cs(+) > Na(+). Associates with Na(+)-coupled myo-inositol symporter SLC5A3 forming a coregulatory complex that alters ion selectivity, increasing Na(+) and Cs(+) permeation relative to K(+) permeation (PubMed:28793216).
