'''Inward-rectifier potassium channels''' ('''K<sub>ir</sub>''', '''IRK''') are a specific subset of [[potassium channel]]s. To date, seven subfamilies have been identified in various mammalian cell types,<ref name="Kubo">{{cite journal | vauthors = Kubo Y, Adelman JP, Clapham DE, Jan LY, Karschin A, Kurachi Y, Lazdunski M, Nichols CG, Seino S, Vandenberg CA | title = International Union of Pharmacology.
