About Scn4a

Chromosome 11: 106,209,418-106,244,114 reverse strand.GRCm39:CM001004.3

This gene has 2 transcripts (splice variants), 191 orthologues, 26 paralogues and is associated with 39 phenotypes. Biased expression in mammary gland adult (RPKM 6.9), heart adult (RPKM 4.1) and 3 other tissues.

Summary

Enables voltage-gated Sodium Channel activity. Acts upstream of or within sodium ion transport. Predicted to be integral component of plasma membrane. Predicted to be part of voltage-gated Sodium Channel complex. Predicted to be active in axon. Is expressed in heart; heart ventricle; and testis. Used to study hyperkalemic periodic paralysis and hypokalemic periodic paralysis. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in congenital myasthenic syndrome 16; hyperkalemic periodic paralysis; and paramyotonia congenita of Von Eulenburg. Orthologous to human SCN4A (sodium voltage-gated channel alpha subunit 4). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
