Descriptor English: Voltage-Gated Sodium Channels
Descriptor Spanish: Canales de Sodio Activados por Voltaje
Descriptor canales del sodio dependientes de voltaje
Entry term(s) canal de sodio activado por voltaje
Scope note: Familia de proteínas de membrana que conducen selectivamente los iones de SODIO mediante DIFERENCIA DE POTENCIAL TRANSMEMBRANA. Poseen una estructura multimérica típica con una subunidad central alfa que define al subtipo de canal de sodio y algunas subunidades beta que modulan la actividad del canal de sodio.

Scope note: A family of membrane proteins that selectively conduct SODIUM ions due to changes in the TRANSMEMBRANE POTENTIAL DIFFERENCE. They typically have a multimeric structure with a core alpha subunit that defines the sodium channel subtype and several beta subunits that modulate sodium channel activity.
