A prokaryotic voltage-gated sodium channel.
The pore-forming subunits of canonical voltage-gated sodium and calcium channels are encoded by four repeated domains of six-transmembrane (6TM) segments. We expressed and characterized a bacterial ion channel (NaChBac) from Bacillus halodurans that is encoded by one 6TM segment. The sequence, especially in the pore region, is similar to that of voltage-gated calcium channels. The expressed cha...
متن کاملThe hitchhiker’s guide to the voltage-gated sodium channel galaxy
Eukaryotic voltage-gated sodium (Nav) channels contribute to the rising phase of action potentials and served as an early muse for biophysicists laying the foundation for our current understanding of electrical signaling. Given their central role in electrical excitability, it is not surprising that (a) inherited mutations in genes encoding for Nav channels and their accessory subunits have bee...
متن کاملTARGETING OF THE CARDIAC VOLTAGE-GATED SODIUM CHANNEL 1.5 REQUIRES AN ANKYRIN-G-DEPENDENT PATHWAY By
The focus of this project is determining if an ankyrin-G-based pathway controls the membrane expression of the voltage-gated sodium channel 1.5 (Na v 1.5) in cardiomyocytes. Disruption of the normal localization of Na v 1.5 can lead to a fatal cardiac arrhythmia termed Brugada Syndrome and has been linked to myopathic cardiac disease. This project defines that an ankyrin-G-based pathway control...
متن کامل14-3-3 is a regulator of the cardiac voltage-gated sodium channel Nav1.5.
The voltage-sensitive Na(+) channel Na(v)1.5 plays a crucial role in generating and propagating the cardiac action potential and its dysfunction promotes cardiac arrhythmias. The channel takes part into a large molecular complex containing regulatory proteins. Thus, factors that modulate its biosynthesis, localization, activity, and/or degradation are of great interest from both a physiological...
متن کاملIsoflurane inhibits the tetrodotoxin-resistant voltage-gated sodium channel Nav1.8.
BACKGROUND Voltage-gated sodium channels (Nav) mediate neuronal action potentials. Tetrodotoxin inhibits all Nav isoforms, but Nav1.8 and Nav1.9 are relatively tetrodotoxin-resistant (TTX-r) compared to other isoforms. Nav1.8 is highly expressed in dorsal root ganglion neurons and is functionally linked to nociception, but the sensitivity of TTX-r isoforms to inhaled anesthetics is unclear. M...
