Targeting of the cardiac voltage-gated sodium channel 1.5 requires an ankyrin-G-dependent pathway

The focus of this project is determining if an ankyrin-G-dependent pathway controls the membrnae expression of the voltage-gated sodium channel 1.5 in cardiomyocytes. Disruption of the normal localization of Nav1.5 can result in Brugada syndrome and has been linked to myopathic disease. This project...
