Literature on SCN10A
SCN10A [ENSP00000390600]
Sodium channel protein type 10 subunit alpha; Tetrodotoxin-resistant channel that mediates the voltage- dependent sodium ion permeability of excitable membranes. Assuming opened or closed conformations in response to the voltage difference across the membrane, the protein forms a sodium-selective channel through which sodium ions may pass in accordance with their electrochemical gradient. Plays a role in neuropathic pain mechanisms.
