General annotation (Comments)

Function

Sodium permeable non-voltage-sensitive ion channel inhibited by the diuretic amiloride. Mediates the electrodiffusion of the luminal sodium (and water, which follows osmotically) through the apical membrane of epithelial cells. Controls the reabsorption of sodium in kidney, colon, lung and sweat glands. Also plays a role in taste perception.

Enzyme regulation

Activated by WNK1, WNK2, WNK3 and WNK4 By similarity.

Subunit structure

Probable heterotrimer containing one alpha, one beta and one gamma subunit. A delta subunit can replace the alpha subunit. Interacts with the WW domains of NEDD4, NEDD4L, WWP1 and WWP2 By similarity. Ref.6

Subcellular location

Apical cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein By similarity. Note: Apical membrane of epithelial cells By similarity.

Post-translational modification

Phosphorylated on serine and threonine residues. Aldosterone and insulin increase the basal level of phosphorylation. Ref.5

Ubiquitinated; this targets individual subunits for endocytosis and proteasome-mediated degradation. Ref.4

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the amiloride-sensitive sodium channel (TC 1.A.6) family. SCNN1G subfamily. [View classification]
