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 PubMedVoltage-gated sodium (Na(v)) channel Na(v)1.7 has been targeted for the development of nonaddictive pain killers. Structures of Na(v)1.7 in distinct functional states will offer an advanced mechanistic understanding and aid drug discovery. Here we report the cryoelectron microscopy analysis of a human Na(v)1.7 variant that, with 11 rationally introduced point mutations, has a markedly right-shifted activation voltage curve with V(1/2) reaching 69 mV. The voltage-sensing domain in the first repeat (VSD(I)) in a 2.7-A resolution structure displays a completely down (deactivated) conformation. Compared to the structure of WT Na(v)1.7, three gating charge (GC) residues in VSD(I) are transferred to the cytosolic side through a combination of helix unwinding and spiral sliding of S4(I) and approximately 20 degrees domain rotation. A conserved WNcapital EF, Cyrilliccapital EF, CyrillicD motif on the cytoplasmic end of S3(I) stabilizes the down conformation of VSD(I). One GC residue is transferred in VSD(II) mainly through helix sliding. Accompanying GC transfer in VSD(I) and VSD(II), rearrangement and contraction of the intracellular gate is achieved through concerted movements of adjacent segments, including S4-5(I), S4-5(II), S5(II), and all S6 segments. Our studies provide important insight into the electromechanical coupling mechanism of the single-chain voltage-gated ion channels and afford molecular interpretations for a number of pain-associated mutations whose pathogenic mechanism cannot be revealed from previously reported Na(v) structures.
