Nav1.5 kb. The gene consists of 28 exons, of which exon 1 and in part exon 2 form the 5’ untranslated region (5’UTR) and exon 28 the 3’ untranslated region (3’UTR) of the RNA. SCN5A is part of a family of 10 genes that encode different types of sodium channels, i.e. brain-type (Na1.1, Na1.2, Na1.3, Na1.6), neuronal channels (Na1.7, Na1.8 and Na1.9), skeletal muscle channels (Na1.4) and the cardiac sodium channel Na1.5. SCN5A is mainly expressed in the heart, where expression is abundant in working myocardium and conduction tissue. In contrast, expression is low in the sinoatrial node and atrioventricular node.
Diskless node as thin clients. Moreover, thin client computers are increasing in power to the point where they are becoming suitable as fully-fledged diskless workstations for some applications. Both thin client and diskless node architectures employ diskless clients which have advantages over fat clients (see above), but differ with regard to the location of processing. Diskless node A diskless node (or diskless workstation) is a workstation or personal computer without disk drives, which employs network booting to load its operating system from a server. (A computer may also be said to "act as a diskless node", if its disks are unused and
