Function

edit

Voltage-gated sodium channels are transmembraneglycoproteincomplexes composed of a large alpha subunit and one or more regulatory beta subunits. They are responsible for the generation and propagation ofaction potentialsin neurons and muscle. This gene encodes one member of the sodium channel beta subunit gene family, and influences the inactivation kinetics of the sodium channel.[6]

Clinical significance

edit

Mutations in the gene are associated with abnormal cardiac electrophysiology.[7][8]
