General description

SCN5A (sodium voltage-gated channel α subunit 5) codes for an α subunit of the cardiac sodium channel (NaV1.5). It is located on human chromosome 3p22.2.

Immunogen

peptide corresponding to amino acid residues 493-511 of rH1 (Accession P15389). This epitope is identical in mouse and highly homologous in human (17/19 residues identical).

Application

Anti-Sodium Channel NaV1.5 antibody produced in rabbit has been in immunoblotting and immunofluorescence.

Biochem/physiol Actions

SCN5A (sodium voltage-gated channel α subunit 5) regulates the movement of sodium ions into cells, which helps in the production and diffusion of electrical impulses. SCN5A mutations results in the loss or gain of sodium channel activity and cause several cardiac diseases like Brugada syndrome, Long QT syndrome type 3, Sick sinus syndrome and progressive familial heart block.

Physical form

Lyophilized at ~0.8 mg/mL in phosphate buffered, pH 7.4, containing 1% bovine serum albumin, and 0.05% sodium azide.

In healthy hearts, ventricular gap junctions are mainly composed by connexin43 (Cx43) and localize in the intercalated disc, enabling appropriate electrical coupling. In diseased hearts, Cx43 is heterogeneously down-regulated, whereas activity of calmodulin/calcium-calmodulin protein kinase II (CaM/CaMKII) signalling increases. It

Improved in vitro systems for predicting drug-induced toxicity are needed in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries to decrease late-stage drug attrition. One unmet need is an early screen for cardiotoxicity, which accounts for about one third of safety-based withdrawn pharmaceuticals.
