Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 5.2.0)
Enables cation channel activity and leak channel activity. Involved in inorganic cation transmembrane transport and regulation of resting membrane potential. Predicted to be located in plasma membrane. Is expressed in central nervous system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in congenital limbs-face contractures-hypotonia-developmental delay syndrome. Orthologous to human NALCN (sodium leak channel, non-selective).
