Background: epithelial Sodium Channel alpha

Epithelial Sodium Channel alpha (SCNN1A) is a subunit of the epithelial sodium channel (ENaC). ENac has high sodium selectivity, low conductance, and amiloride sensitivity. The functional channel of ENaC is composed of at least 3 subunits, alpha (SCNN1A), beta (SCNN1B), and gamma (SCNN1G). The 3 subunits show sequence similarities to one another, indicating descent from a common ancestral gene. Each encodes a protein containing 2 transmembrane domains, with intracellular amino and carboxyl termini. The alpha subunit supports sodium conductance when expressed alone; the beta and gamma subunits do not support sodium conductance by themselves, but greatly augment the channel activity when expressed in conjunction with the alpha subunit. ENaC in the kidney, lung and colon plays an essential role in trans- epithelial sodium and fluid balance. ENaC also mediates aldosterone-dependent sodium re-uptake in the distal nephron of the kidney, thus regulating blood pressure. Gain-of-function mutations in beta- or gamma-ENaC can cause severe arterial hypertension (Liddel's syndrome) and loss-of-function mutations in alpha- or beta-ENaC causes pseudohypoaldosteronism (PHA-1).
