Cardiac sodium channel palmitoylation regulates channel availability and myocyte excitability with implications for arrhythmia generation

Cardiac voltage-gated sodium channels (Nav1.5) are crucial regulators of heart electric activity. Here the authors show that palmitoylation, a process of lipid modification of cysteine residues, modulates Nav1.5 function and affects cardiomyocyte excitability, representing a potential target in trea...
