High impact information on SCNN1D

 

Biological context of SCNN1D

  • To explain this discrepancy, we searched for novel functional properties of homomeric ENaCdelta and investigated the detailed tissue distribution in humans [3].
 

Anatomical context of SCNN1D

  • When human ENaCdelta was expressed in Xenopus oocytes and Chinese hamster ovary cells, a reduction of extracellular pH activated this channel (half-maximal pH for an activation of 5.0), and the acid-induced current was abolished by amiloride [3].
  • RNA dot-blot analyses showed that ENaCdelta mRNA was widely distributed throughout the brain and was also expressed in the heart, kidney, and pancreas in humans [3].
  • Northern blotting confirmed that ENaCdelta was expressed in the cerebellum and the hippocampus [3].
