About Scn9a

Primary_assembly 3: 51,145,146-51,293,516 reverse strand.mRatBN7.2:CM026976.1

This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 111 orthologues, 26 paralogues and is associated with 44 phenotypes. Biased expression in Brain (RPKM 67.9), Adrenal (RPKM 18.) and 3 other tissues.

Summary

Enables sodium ion binding activity and voltage-gated Sodium Channel activity. Involved in several processes, including behavioral response to formalin induced pain; negative regulation of action potential; and neuronal action potential. Located in axon. Part of voltage-gated Sodium Channel complex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in erythromelalgia; generalized epilepsy with febrile seizures plus 7; and paroxysmal extreme pain disorder. Orthologous to human SCN9A (sodium voltage-gated channel alpha subunit 9). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
