Planteome: Term Details for "clustering of voltage-gated sodium channels" (GO:0045162)

Accession: GO:0045162
Name: clustering of voltage-gated sodium channels
Ontology: biological_process
Synonyms: Nav channel clustering, clustering of voltage gated sodium channels, clustering of voltage-dependent sodium channels, voltage-gated sodium channel clustering
Alternate IDs: None
Definition: The process in which voltage-gated sodium channels become localized together in high densities. In animals, nodes of Ranvier differ dramatically from internodal axonal regions in very high densities of voltage-dependent sodium (Nav) channels responsible for the rapid, inward ionic currents that produce membrane depolarization.
