GO Classification
Functions
  • voltage-gated sodium channel activity
  • ion channel binding
  • voltage-gated sodium channel activity involved in cardiac muscle cell action potential
  • sodium channel regulator activity
Processes
  • sodium ion transport
  • regulation of sodium ion transmembrane transporter activity
  • sodium ion transmembrane transport
  • AV node cell action potential
  • cardiac muscle cell action potential involved in contraction
  • cardiac muscle contraction
  • membrane depolarization during cardiac muscle cell action potential
  • positive regulation of sodium ion transport
  • regulation of heart rate by cardiac conduction
  • regulation of ventricular cardiac muscle cell membrane repolarization
Components
  • voltage-gated sodium channel complex
  • intercalated disc
  • intrinsic component of plasma membrane
General FunctionVoltage-gated sodium channel activity involved in cardiac muscle cell action potential
Specific FunctionModulates channel gating kinetics. Causes negative shifts in the voltage dependence of activation of certain alpha sodium channels, but does not affect the voltage dependence of inactivation. Modulates the suceptibility of the sodium channel to inhibition by toxic peptides from spider, scorpion, wasp and sea anemone venom.
