MeSH definition : A voltage-gated sodium channel beta subunit abundantly expressed in SKELETAL MUSCLE;
HEART; and BRAIN. It non-covalently associates with voltage-gated alpha subunits.
Defects in the SCN1B gene, which codes for this beta subunit, are associated with
generalized epilepsy with febrile seizures plus, type 1, and Brugada syndrome 5.;
