GO Classification
Functions
  • sodium channel regulator activity
  • voltage-gated sodium channel activity involved in cardiac muscle cell action potential
Processes
  • regulation of sodium ion transmembrane transporter activity
  • response to pyrethroid
  • synaptic transmission
  • sodium ion transmembrane transport
  • nervous system development
  • cardiac muscle cell action potential involved in contraction
  • cardiac muscle contraction
  • membrane depolarization during cardiac muscle cell action potential
  • regulation of atrial cardiac muscle cell membrane depolarization
  • regulation of heart rate by cardiac conduction
Components
  • voltage-gated sodium channel complex
General FunctionVoltage-gated sodium channel activity involved in cardiac muscle cell action potential
Specific FunctionCrucial in the assembly, expression, and functional modulation of the heterotrimeric complex of the sodium channel. The subunit beta-2 causes an increase in the plasma membrane surface area and in its folding into microvilli. Interacts with TNR may play a crucial role in clustering and regulation of activity of sodium channels at nodes of Ranvier (By similarity).
