Awareness Day

International SCN2A Awareness Day

What’s the significance of SCN2A Day being 2/24 (February 24th)?

Located on the long (q) arm of chromosome 2 at position 24.3 the SCN2A is sodium channel, voltage gated, type II alpha subunit. Sodium ion channels are proteins in cells that allow sodium to pass to the inside. Sodium ion channels play a key role in a cell's ability to generate and transmit electrical signals. When there is a deletion or mutation of this gene it has been identified to cause autism, epilepsy and other neurological issues like movement disorders, dystonia and dsyautonomia to name just a few.

SCN2A Awareness Day will help us accomplish the FamilieSCN2A Foundation mission to improve the lives of those affected by SCN2A related disorders through research, public awareness, family support and patient advocacy.
