Function | Modulates channel gating kinetics. Causes unique persistent sodium currents. Inactivates the sodium channel opening more slowly than the subunit beta-1. Its association with neurofascin may target the sodium channels to the nodes of Ranvier of developing axons and retain these channels at the nodes in mature myelinated axons (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}. |
Subcellular Location | Membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. |
Tissue Specificity | Expressed in the atrium. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21051419}. |
