The genetic architecture of degenerin/epithelial sodium channels in Drosophila.

G3 (Bethesda, Md.) - 1 Mar 2013

Abstract excerpt

Degenerin/epithelial sodium channels (DEG/ENaC) represent a large family of animal-specific membrane proteins. Although the physiological functions of most family members are not known, some have been shown to act as nonvoltage gated, amiloride-sensitive sodium channels. The DEG/ENaC family is exceptionally large in genomes of Drosophila species relative to vertebrates and other insects. To elucidate the...
