Summary: Predicted to enable sodium channel regulator activity; transmembrane transporter binding activity; and voltage-gated sodium channel activity involved in cardiac muscle cell action potential. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including cardiac muscle cell action potential; neuronal action potential; and regulation of sodium ion transport. Predicted to act upstream of or within establishment of localization in cell and sodium ion transmembrane transport. Predicted to be located in intercalated disc. Predicted to be part of voltage-gated sodium channel complex. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in long QT syndrome 10. Orthologous to human SCN4B (sodium voltage-gated channel beta subunit 4). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
