Function | This is one of the three pore-forming subunits of the heterotrimeric epithelial sodium channel (ENaC), a critical regulator of sodium balance and fluid homeostasis (PubMed:30251954, PubMed:32729833, PubMed:7762608, PubMed:9792722). ENaC operates in epithelial tissues, where it mediates the electrodiffusion of sodium ions from extracellular fluid through the apical membrane of cells, with water following osmotically (PubMed:24124190). It plays a key role in maintaining sodium homeostasis through electrogenic sodium reabsorption in the kidneys (PubMed:12107247). Additionally, ENaC is essential for airway surface liquid homeostasis, which is crucial for proper mucus clearance (PubMed:24124190). |
Cellular Location | Apical cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Cytoplasmic vesicle membrane {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P37090}; Multi-pass membrane protein |
Tissue Location | Detected in placenta, lung and kidney (PubMed:7762608). Expressed in kidney (at protein level) (PubMed:22207244). |

Background
Nonvoltage-gated, amiloride-sensitive, sodium channels control fluid and electrolyte transport across epithelia in many organs. These channels are heteromeric complexes consisting of 3 subunits: alpha, beta, and gamma. This gene encodes the beta subunit, and mutations in this gene have been associated with pseudohypoaldosteronism type 1 (PHA1), and Liddle syndrome.
