Post Translational Modifications | May be ubiquitinated by NEDD4L.which would promote its endocytosis. Phosphorylation at Ser-1497 by PKC in a highly conserved cytoplasmic loop slows inactivation of the sodium channel and reduces peak sodium currents. |
Function | Mediates the voltage-dependent sodium ion permeability of excitable membranes. Assuming opened or closed conformations in response to the voltage difference across the membrane, the protein forms a sodium-selective channel through which Na(+) ions may pass in accordance with their electrochemical gradient. Isoform 5: In macrophages and melanoma cells, may participate in the control of podosome and invadopodia formation. |
