ASIC2
Cation channel with high affinity for sodium, which is gated by extracellular protons and inhibited by the diuretic amiloride. Also permeable for Li(+) and K(+). Generates a biphasic current with a fast inactivating and a slow sustained phase. Heteromeric channel assembly seems to modulate. Belongs to the amiloride-sensitive sodium channel (TC 1.A.6) family. ASIC2 subfamily. Brain and spinal cord. Isoform 1 is also detected in testis, liver, colon and ovary. 2 alternatively spliced human isoforms have been reported. Note: This description may include information from UniProtKB.
