Function: This potassium channel may be involved in the regulation of insulin secretion by glucose and/or neurotransmitters acting through G-protein-coupled receptors. Inward rectifier potassium channels are characterized by a greater tendency to allow potassium to flow into the cell rather than out of it. Their oltage dependence is regulated by the concentration of extracellular potassium; as external potassium is raised, the voltage range of the channel opening shifts to morepositive voltages. The inward rectification is mainly due to the blockage of outward current by internal magnesium . Cellular location: Membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Tissue Location:
Most abundant in cerebellum, and to a lesser degree in islets and exocrine pancreas

ncbi summary :
This gene encodes a member of the G protein-coupled inwardly-rectifying potassium channel family of inward rectifier potassium channels. This type of potassium channel allows a greater flow of potassium into the cell than out of it. These proteins modulate many physiological processes, including heart rate in cardiac cells and circuit activity in neuronal cells, through G-protein coupled receptor stimulation. Mutations in this gene are associated with Keppen-Lubinsky Syndrome, a rare condition characterized by severe developmental delay, facial dysmorphism, and intellectual disability.

uniprot summary :
GIRK2: This potassium channel may be involved in the regulation of insulin secretion by glucose and/or neurotransmitters acting through G-protein-coupled receptors. Inward rectifier potassium channels are characterized by a greater tendency to allow potassium to flow into the cell rather than out of it. Their voltage dependence is regulated by the concentration of extracellular potassium; as external potassium is raised, the voltage range of the channel opening shifts to more positive voltages. The inward rectification is mainly due to the blockage of outward current by internal magnesium. Belongs to the inward rectifier-type potassium channel (TC 1.A.2.1) family. KCNJ6 subfamily. Protein type: Membrane protein, integral; Membrane protein, multi-pass. Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 21q22.1. Cellular Component: Golgi apparatus; voltage-gated potassium channel complex; plasma membrane. Molecular Function: protein binding; G-protein activated inward rectifier potassium channel activity; inward rectifier potassium channel activity. Biological Process: synaptic transmission; potassium ion import; potassium ion transport. Disease: Keppen-lubinsky Syndrome
