Activation by cleavage of the epithelial Na(+) channel α and γ subunits independently coevolved with the vertebrate terrestrial migration

Vertebrates evolved mechanisms for sodium conservation and gas exchange in conjunction with migration from aquatic to terrestrial habitats. Epithelial Na(+) channel (ENaC) function is critical to systems responsible for extracellular fluid homeostasis and gas exchange. ENaC is activated by cleavage...
