Synonyms BFIS5; CERIII; CIAT; EIEE13; MED; MYOCL2; NaCh6; Nav1.6; PN4; SCN8A; Sodium channel protein type VIII subunit alpha; Sodium channel protein type 8 subunit alpha; Voltage-gated sodium channel subunit alpha Nav1.6
DT Family Voltage-Gated Ion Channel (VIC) Superfamily ;
Tissue Specificity Isoform 5 is expressed in non-neuronaltissues, such as monocytes/macrophages.
Function This transporter 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. In macrophages and melanoma cells, isoform 5 may participate in the control of podosome and invadopodia formation.
Endogenous Substrate(s) Na+
