Background InformationSodium channel subunit beta-2 (UniProt Q56A07; also known as Navbeta2, Sodium channel, voltage-gated, type II, beta polypeptide) is encoded by the Scn2b (also known as Gm183, AI840361, 2810451E09Rik) gene (Gene ID 72821) in murine species. Sodium channels are integral plasma membrane proteins that conduct Na+ transport across the plasma membrane. They are classified as either voltage-gated or ligand-gated based on the nature of the triggering mechanism for channel activation. Voltage-gated sodium channels (VGSCs) are also called voltage-sensitive, voltage-dependent, or Nav channels. VGSCs normally consist of an alpha subunit that forms the ion conducting pore and one to two beta subunits that have several functions including channel gating modulation, although the expression of the alpha subunit alone is sufficient to produce a functional channel. There exist nine known alpha subunits (Nav1.1 through Nav1.5 encoded by SCN1A through SCN5A and Nav1.6 through Nav1.9 encoded by SCN8A through SCN11A) and four beta subunits (Navbeta1 through Navbeta4 encoded by SCN1B through SCN4B). Beta 1 and beta 3 interact with the alpha subunit non-covalently, whereas beta 2 and beta 4 associate with alpha via disulfide bond. Beta subunits are members of the Ig superfamily and contain a prototypic V-set Ig loop in their extracellular domain. Beta subunits share no homology with their counterparts of calcium and potassium channels, instead are homologous to neural cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) and the family of L1 CAMs. Navbeta2 is initially produced with a signal peptide sequence (a.a. 1-29), the remmoval of which yields the mature protein with an Ig-like C2-type extracellular domain (a.a. 30-159), a transmembrane segment (a.a. 160-180), and a small cytoplamic tail (a.a. 181-215).
