We apologize for Proteopedia being slow to respond. For the past two years, a new implementation of Proteopedia has been being built. Soon, it will replace this 18-year old system. All existing content will be moved to the new system at a date that will be announced here.

Preferentially inhibits neuronal voltage-gated sodium channel subtype hNav1.7/SCN9A (IC(50) is 26 nM), rNav1.2/SCN2A (IC(50) is 150 nM), and rNav1.3/SCN3A (IC(50) is 338 nM), compared with muscle subtypes rNav1.4/SCN4A and hNav1.5/SCN5A (IC(50) is > 10 uM). Inhibits activation of sodium channel by trapping the voltage sensor of domain II of the site 4 in the inward, closed configuration.<ref>PMID:12228241</ref> <ref>PMID:18628201</ref> | ||
