Descriptor English: NAV1.6 Voltage-Gated Sodium Channel
Descriptor Spanish: Canal de Sodio Activado por Voltaje NAV1.6
Descriptor canales del sodio dependientes de voltaje NAV1.6
Entry term(s) subunidad alfa tipo 8 de los canales del sodio dependientes de voltaje
Scope note: Subtipo de canal del sodio dependiente de voltaje, ampliamente expresado en las neuronas del sistema nervioso central y periférico. Defectos en el gen SCN8A, que codifica la subunidad alfa de este canal de sodio, están asociados con ATAXIA y déficits cognitivos.
