GEFSP1, SCN1B, SCN1B_HUMAN, sodium channel beta 1 subunit, Sodium channel subunit beta 1, Sodium channel subunit beta-1, Sodium channel voltage gated type I beta.
Crucial in the assembly, expression, and functional modulation of the heterotrimeric complex of the sodium channel. The subunit beta-1 can modulate multiple alpha subunit isoforms from brain, skeletal muscle, and heart. 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.Tissue specificity, Abundantly expressed in skeletal muscle, heart and brain.
