Abstract:
Mammalian sodium (NaV) channels are membrane proteins with potential therapeutic applications. Lack of crystal structures is the main bottleneck for studying these channels. Constructing a model of NaV channels using computational methods is an alternative way to study NaV channels and would be valuable in structure-based drug design. I constructed a homology model for NaV1.4 based on the crystal structure of bacterial counterparts. The extensive functional data for the binding of µ–conotoxin GIIIA to NaV1.4 were used to validate the model. The predictions of the binding were in good agreemen

Abstract:
Voltage-gated sodium (Nav) channels are therapeutic targets for several disorders affecting humans, including epilepsy, neurodegeneration and neuropathic pain. Typically, drugs treating these conditions exert a use- and voltage-dependent inhibition of Na currents, an action attributed to the stabilisation of the slow inactivated state which is formed during prolonged depolarisation. The binding site has been suggested to reside in the channel pore at a site only accessible from the intracellular environment.

While the voltage-dependence of activation was similar for wild type human and rat Nay 1.8 channels, the voltage-dependence of steady-state inactivation was more hyperpolarised for hNav 1.8 compared to rNav 1.8.

Abstract:
Voltage gated sodium channels (VGSC) are integral membrane proteins that selectively transport sodium ions across cellular membranes in response to changes in membrane potential. In vertebrates sodium channels are composed of a pore forming alpha subunit and one or more auxiliary beta subunit. There are a total of nine different alpha subunit isoforms and four known beta subunits. In higher eukaryotes VGSCs are responsible for fast electrical signalling through the propagation of action potentials in excitable cells such as neurons and muscle.

Abstract:
The epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) is a key regulator of salt homeostasis. The classic ENaC consists of three subunits: α, β and γ, which are highly expressed in the kidney and colon where they mediate electrogenic Na⁺ influx into cells under the tight hormonal regulation of aldosterone. A fourth ENaC subunit named [delta]ENaC also generates Na⁺ influx with the β- and γENaC subunits in Xenopus oocytes. However [delta]ENaC differs to the other subunits in its channel properties and tissue distribution, suggesting that [delta]ENaC may possess a physiological role other than salt regulation.

ENaC is mainly regulated by mechanisms that control the expression of active channels at the cell surface.
