GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
SCN4B (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
LQT10
Description
Sodium channel, voltage gated, type IV beta subunit (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
The protein encoded by this gene is one of several sodium channel beta subunits. These subunits interact with voltage-gated alpha subunits to change sodium channel kinetics. The encoded transmembrane protein forms interchain disulfide bonds with SCN2A. Defects in this gene are a cause of long QT syndrome type 10 (LQT10). Three protein-coding and one non-coding transcript variant have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Mar 2009]
