Protein Domain : IPR028809

Type:  Family Name:  Voltage gated sodium channel, alpha-10 subunit
Description:  Nine voltage-gated sodium channels (Navs) are expressed in complex patterns in mammalian nerve and muscle. These channels mediate the influx of Na+ ions in response to local depolarising stimuli. Nav channels are composed of a pore-forming alpha-subunit associated with one or more auxiliary beta-subunits. The pore-forming alpha subunit is sufficient for functional expression, but the localisation, kinetics and voltage dependence of channel gating are modified by the beta subunits [, ].Nav1.8 (sodium channel protein type 10 subunit alpha) is a tetrodotoxin-resistant sodium channel isoform that plays a role in neuropathic pain mechanism [, , , ]. Short Name:  Na_channel_a10su
