clustering of voltage-gated sodium channels

id: GO:0045162
name: clustering of voltage-gated sodium channels
namespace: biological_process
type: go
obsolete: False

Description: The process in which voltage-gated sodium channels become localized together in high densities. In animals, nodes of Ranvier differ dramatically from internodal axonal regions in very high densities of voltage-dependent sodium (Nav) channels responsible for the rapid, inward ionic currents that produce membrane depolarization.
