Cacna1h - calcium channel, voltage-dependent, T type, alpha 1H subunit Gene

Also Known as Cav3.2; MNCb-1209; alpha13.2

Species: Mus musculus

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 58226

Summary

Voltage-dependent CA(2+) channels mediate the entry of CA(2+) ions into excitable cells and are involved in a variety of CA(2+)-dependent processes, including muscle contraction, hormone or neurotransmitter release, and gene expression. The protein encoded by this gene is an integral membrane protein that belongs to the Calcium Channel alpha-1 subunits family. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2009]
