Summary
SCN3B (sodium voltage-gated channel beta subunit 3, HGNC:20665) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 11q24.1, encoding Sodium channel regulatory subunit beta-3 (Q9NY72). Regulatory subunit of multiple voltage-gated sodium (Nav) channels directly mediating the depolarization of excitable membranes.
Voltage-gated sodium channels are transmembrane glycoprotein complexes composed of a large alpha subunit and one or more regulatory beta subunits. They are responsible for the generation and propagation of action potentials in neurons and muscle. This gene encodes one member of the sodium channel beta subunit gene family, and influences the inactivation kinetics of the sodium channel. Two alternatively spliced variants, encoding the same protein, have been identified.

UniProt curated annotations — full annotation on UniProt →
Function. Regulatory subunit of multiple voltage-gated sodium (Nav) channels directly mediating the depolarization of excitable membranes. Navs, also called VGSCs (voltage-gated sodium channels) or VDSCs (voltage-dependent sodium channels), operate by switching between closed and open conformations depending on the voltage difference across the membrane. In the open conformation they allow Na(+) ions to selectively pass through the pore, along their electrochemical gradient. The influx of Na+ ions provokes membrane depolarization, initiating the propagation of electrical signals throughout cells and tissues. The accessory beta subunits participate in localization and functional modulation of the Nav channels. Modulates the activity of SCN2A/Nav1.2, causing a hyperpolarizing shift in the voltage-dependence of inactivation of the channel and increasing the fraction of channels operating in the fast gating mode. Modulates the activity of SCN5A/Nav1.5. Could also regulate the atypical sodium channel SCN7A/Nav2.1. Modulates the activity of SCN10A/Nav1.8, regulating its oligomerization and accelerating the recovery from inactivation.
Subunit / interactions. A voltage-gated sodium (Nav) channel consists of an ion-conducting pore-forming alpha subunit functional on its own that is regulated by one or more beta subunits. Forms homodimers and homotrimers. SCN3B is non-covalently associated with alpha subunits and induces the formation of alpha subunit oligomers, including trimers. Interacts with SCN5A/Nav1.5; regulatory subunit of SCN5A/Nav1.5. Interacts with SCN7A/Nav2.1; probable regulatory subunit of SCN7A/Nav2.1. Interacts with SCN10A; regulatory subunit of SCN10A/Nav1.8. Interacts with NFASC; probably involved in targeting the sodium channels to the nodes of Ranvier.
Subcellular location. Cell membrane.
Tissue specificity. Expressed in the atrium.
Post-translational modifications. Intramolecular disulfide bonds favor the voltage-gated sodium channel oligomeric complex assembly. N-glycosylated.
Disease relevance. Brugada syndrome 7 (BRGDA7) [MIM:613120] A tachyarrhythmia characterized by right bundle branch block and ST segment elevation on an electrocardiogram (ECG). It can cause the ventricles to beat so fast that the blood is prevented from circulating efficiently in the body. When this situation occurs, the individual will faint and may die in a few minutes if the heart is not reset. The gene represented in this entry may be involved in disease pathogenesis. Atrial fibrillation, familial, 16 (ATFB16) [MIM:613120] A familial form of atrial fibrillation, a common sustained cardiac rhythm disturbance. Atrial fibrillation is characterized by disorganized atrial electrical activity and ineffective atrial contraction promoting blood stasis in the atria and reduces ventricular filling. It can result in palpitations, syncope, thromboembolic stroke, and congestive heart failure. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Similarity. Belongs to the sodium channel auxiliary subunit SCN3B (TC 8.A.17) family.

Enriched among interaction partners
Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 103 IntAct physical interaction partners (hypergeometric vs the genome-wide background, BH-FDR, gene-set size 15–500, ranked by fold). A functional readout of the neighbourhood — distinct from this gene’s own memberships above, and biased toward well-studied / hub proteins, so read it as themes rather than proof.
