Automated Description
Enables calcium channel regulator activity; delayed rectifier potassium channel activity; and voltage-gated calcium channel activity. Involved in several processes, including egg-laying behavior; nematode pharyngeal pumping; and serotonin receptor signaling pathway. Located in endoplasmic reticulum membrane and plasma membrane. Part of voltage-gated calcium channel complex. Is expressed in alimentary muscle; body wall musculature; nervous system; pharynx; and vulval muscle. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in developmental and epileptic encephalopathy 110 and retinal cone dystrophy 4. Orthologous to several human genes including CACNA2D3 (calcium voltage-gated channel auxiliary subunit alpha2delta 3).
WB Description
unc-36 encodes an alpha2/delta subunit of a voltage-gated calcium channel; unc-36 is required for normal locomotion and proper intracellular trafficking, presynaptic localization and functional maturation of the UNC-2 alpha1 subunit of a C. elegans CaV2 channel in sensory and motor neurons; unc-36 also functions in a calcium-dependent pathway that establishes left-right asymmetry in the nervous system during development; recordings of voltage-dependent calcium currents indicate that UNC-36 regulates voltage dependence, kinetics, and conductance of the EGL-19 alpha1 subunit of the body wall muscle voltage-dependent calcium channel; unc-36 is expressed in muscle cells and motor neurons; an UNC-36::GFP localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum and the plasma membrane.
