Sodium Channel and Sodium
Levels of sodium pump and of sodium channels were measured at different stages of membrane purification. Microsomal fractions of normal human muscle have maximal binding capacities for tetrodotoxin of 230 fmol/mg of protein and of 7.4 pmol/mg of protein for ouabain. Dissociation constant for the complexes formed by the tetrodotoxin derivative and by ouabain with their respective receptors were ...
متن کاملBiology of cardiac sodium channel Nav1.5 expression.
Na(v)1.5, the pore forming α-subunit of the voltage-dependent cardiac Na(+) channel, is an integral membrane protein involved in the initiation and conduction of action potentials. Mutations in the gene-encoding Na(v)1.5, SCN5A, have been associated with a variety of arrhythmic disorders, including long QT, Brugada, and sick sinus syndromes as well as progressive cardiac conduction defect and a...
متن کاملSpliced Sodium Channel Transcripts
Sodium (Na) channel cDNAs were synthesized from RNA isolated from rat brain, cardiac muscle, and skeletal muscle. Partial cDNAs coding for the largest cytoplasmic loop of the Na channel were amplified with PCR. Sequence analysis of these cDNAs revealed that Na channel cDNAs originally described as brain genes were also expressed in both cardiac and skeletal muscle. Some of these cDNAs were isof...
متن کاملWNK1 activates SGK1 to regulate the epithelial sodium channel.
WNK (with no lysine [K]) kinases are serine-threonine protein kinases with an atypical placement of the catalytic lysine. Intronic deletions increase the expression of WNK1 in humans and cause pseudohypoaldosteronism type II, a form of hypertension. WNKs have been linked to ion carriers, but the underlying regulatory mechanisms are unknown. Here, we report a mechanism for the control of ion per...
متن کاملTemperature-dependent model of human cardiac sodium channel
Cardiac sodium channels are integral membrane proteins whose structure is not known at atomic level yet and their molecular kinetics is still being studied through mathematical modeling. This study has focused on adapting an existing model of cardiac Na channel to analyze molecular kinetics of channels at 9-37°C. Irvine et al developed a Markov model for Na channel using Neuronal Network Model ...
