IPR001696 | Family | Voltage gated sodium channel, alpha subunit |
Type: | Family | Name: | Voltage gated sodium channel type 4, subunit alpha A |
Description: | Genome-wide duplication event plays an important part in evolution of the SCNA (sodium channel alpha-subunit) gene family. The number of SCNA genes encoding Nav1 proteins in mammals and teleosts (fish) are similar -eight versus nine, respectively. They code for transmembrane Nav1 proteins that allow the sodium influx required for action potential generation in excitable cells [].This entry represents sodium channel protein type 4 subunit alpha A (scn4aa) from fish []. | Short Name: | Na_channel_a4suA |
