Biological function summary
The Nav1.2 channel contributes to the generation and propagation of action potentials in neurons. It is part of a larger sodium channel complex that regulates neuronal excitability and synaptic transmission. This channel plays an essential role in maintaining the electrical activity that supports processes like learning and memory. Proper function of Nav1.2 ensures precise neuronal communication which is necessary for normal cognitive and neurological activities.
Pathways
The Nav1.2 channel integrates into the action potential pathway where it participates in the initiation and transmission of nerve impulses. It also intersects with synaptic transmission pathways working alongside proteins like Nav1.1 and Nav1.6 to ensure proper synaptic function. These interactions facilitate an effective communication system necessary for maintaining neural network stability.

General info
Function
Mediates the voltage-dependent sodium ion permeability of excitable membranes. Assuming opened or closed conformations in response to the voltage difference across the membrane, the protein forms a sodium-selective channel through which Na(+) ions may pass in accordance with their electrochemical gradient (PubMed : 1325650, PubMed : 17021166, PubMed : 28256214, PubMed : 29844171). Implicated in the regulation of hippocampal replay occurring within sharp wave ripples (SPW-R) important for memory (By similarity).
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the sodium channel (TC 1.A.1.10) family. Nav1.2/SCN2A subfamily.
Post-translational modifications
May be ubiquitinated by NEDD4L; which would promote its endocytosis.. Phosphorylation at Ser-1506 by PKC in a highly conserved cytoplasmic loop slows inactivation of the sodium channel and reduces peak sodium currents.. Sumoylated at Lys-38. Sumoylation is induced by hypoxia, increases voltage-gated sodium current and mediates the early response to acute hypoxia in neurons. Sumoylated SCN2A is located at the cell membrane.
