Rabbit Anti-SCN10A/Nav1.8/FITC Conjugated antibody
background:
Nav1.8 protein mediates the voltage-dependent sodium ion permeability of excitable membranes. Assuming opened or closed conformations in response to the voltage difference across the membrane, Nav1.8 forms a sodium-selective channel through which sodium ions may pass in accordance with their electrochemical gradient. It is a tetrodotoxin-resistant sodium channel isoform. Nav1.8 plays a role in neuropathic pain mechanisms.
Function:
This protein 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 sodium ions may pass in accordance with their electrochemical gradient. It is a tetrodotoxin-resistant sodium channel isoform. Its electrophysiological properties vary depending on the type of the associated beta subunits (in vitro). Plays a role in neuropathic pain mechanisms.
Subunit:
The voltage-resistant sodium channel consists of an ion conducting pore forming alpha-subunit regulated by one or more associated auxiliary subunits SCN1B, SCN2B and SCN3B. Found in a number of complexes with PRX, DYNLT1 and PDZD2. Interacts with proteins such as FSTL1, PRX, DYNLT1, PDZD2, S100A10 and many others. Interacts with NEDD4 and NEDD4L.
Subcellular Location:
Membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Note=It can be translocated to the extracellular membrane through association with S100A10.
Tissue Specificity:
Expressed in the dorsal root ganglia and sciatic nerve.
Post-translational modifications:
Ubiquitinated by NEDD4L; which promotes its endocytosis.
Similarity:
Belongs to the sodium channel (TC 1.A.1.10) family. Nav1.8/SCN10A subfamily.
Contains 1 IQ domain.
