Background

Function
Nav1.7 is a Pore-forming subunit of Nav1.7, a voltage-gated sodium (Nav) channel that directly mediates the depolarizing phase of action potentials in excitable membranes. Navs, also called VGSCs (voltage-gated sodium channels) or VDSCs (voltage-dependent sodium channels), operate by switching between closed and open conformations depending on the voltage difference across the membrane. In the open conformation they allow Na(+) ions to selectively pass through the pore, along their electrochemical gradient. The influx of Na(+) ions provokes membrane depolarization, initiating the propagation of electrical signals throughout cells and tissues. Nav1.7 plays a crucial role in controlling the excitability and action potential propagation from nociceptor neurons, thereby contributing to the sensory perception of pain[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11].

Expression
Tissue_Specificity: Expressed strongly in dorsal root ganglion, with only minor levels elsewhere in the body, smooth muscle cells, MTC cell line and C-cell carcinoma. Also expressed in vagus nerves within the head and neck region. Isoform 1 is expressed preferentially in the central and peripheral nervous system. Isoform 2 is expressed preferentially in the dorsal root ganglion. -
Isoforms & Post-Translational Modification
Nav1.
Phosphorylation at Ser-1490 by PKC in a highly conserved cytoplasmic loop increases peak sodium currents. -
Subunit
The Nav1.7 voltage-gated sodium channel consists of an ion-conducting alpha subunit SCN9A which is functional on its own regulated by one or more beta-1 (SCN1B), beta-2 (SCN2B), beta-3 (SCN3B) and beta-4 (SCN4B) subunits.
