Assuming opened or closed conformations in response to the voltage difference across the membrane, the protein forms a sodium-selective channel through which Na(+) ions may pass in accordance with their electrochemical gradient (PubMed:7720699, PubMed:17167479, PubMed:25240195, PubMed:26680203, PubMed:15385606, PubMed:16988069, PubMed:17145499, PubMed:19369487, PubMed:24311784). It is a tetrodotoxin-sensitive Na(+) channel isoform (PubMed:7720699). Plays a role in pain mechanisms, especially in the development of inflammatory pain (PubMed:17167479, PubMed:17145499, PubMed:19369487, PubMed:24311784).[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] Publication Abstract from PubMedNa(v)1.7 represents a preeminent target for next-generation analgesics for its critical role in pain sensation. Here we report a 2.2-A resolution cryo-EM structure of wild-type (WT) Na(v)1.7 complexed with the beta1 and beta2 subunits that reveals several previously indiscernible cytosolic segments. Reprocessing of the cryo-EM data for our reported structures of Na(v)1.7(E406K) bound to various toxins identifies two distinct conformations of S6(IV), one composed of alpha helical turns only and the other containing a pi helical turn in the middle. The structure of ligand-free Na(v)1.7(E406K), determined at 3.5-A resolution, is identical to the WT channel, confirming that binding of Huwentoxin IV or Protoxin II to VSD(II) allosterically induces the alpha --> pi transition of S6(IV). The local secondary structural shift leads to contraction of the intracellular gate, closure of the fenestration on the interface of repeats I and IV, and rearrangement of the binding site for the fast inactivation motif. High-resolution structures of human Na(v)1.7 reveal gating modulation through alpha-pi helical transition of S6(IV).,Huang G, Liu D, Wang W, Wu Q, Chen J, Pan X, Shen H, Yan N Cell Rep. 2022 Apr 26;39(4):110735. doi: 10.1016/j.celrep.2022.110735.
