Voltage-Gated Sodium Channels

A family of membrane proteins that selectively conduct SODIUM ions due to changes in the TRANSMEMBRANE POTENTIAL DIFFERENCE. They typically have a multimeric structure with a core alpha subunit that defines the sodium channel subtype and several beta subunits that modulate sodium channel activity.

Also Known As:

Sodium Channels, Voltage-Gated; Channel, Voltage-Gated Sodium; Channels, Voltage-Gated Sodium; Sodium Channel, Voltage-Gated; Sodium Channels, Voltage Gated; Voltage Gated Sodium Channel; Voltage Gated Sodium Channels; Voltage-Gated Sodium Channel
