Painless Na <sub>v</sub> 1.7 mutations reveal function-critical residues in the outer vestibule and N-terminus
2025-05-13
Abstract excerpt
Chronic pain is a common condition, placing a large cost on society and a heavy burden on the individual. Na v 1.7 has emerged as a non-redundant and axiomatically important part of human pain pathways. Biallelic loss-of-function (LOF) mutations in SCN9A , encoding voltage-gated sodium channel Na v 1.7, cause the Mendelian disorder Congenital Insensitivity to Pain (CIP). Studying novel missense mutations in thi...
