SummarySummary of gene provided in NCBI Entrez Gene.
|
This gene encodes one of the many voltage-gated sodium channel proteins. For proper functioning of neurons and muscles during action potentials, voltage-gated sodium channels direct sodium ion diffusion for membrane depolarization. This sodium channel pro |

Protein name |
Sodium channel protein type 7 subunit alpha (Atypical sodium channel Nav2.1) (Nax channel) (Sodium channel protein type VII subunit alpha) |
Protein function |
Sodium leak channel functioning as an osmosensor regulating sodium ion levels in various tissues and organs. While most sodium channels are voltage-gated, SCN7A is not and lets sodium flow through membrane along its concentration gradient (PubMe |
