calcium channel, voltage-dependent, N type, alpha 1B subunit, a
Synonyms
cacna1b
CACNA1Bb
Biotype
protein coding gene
Automated Description
Predicted to enable high voltage-gated calcium channel activity. Predicted to be involved in calcium ion import across plasma membrane and chemical synaptic transmission. Predicted to act upstream of or within calcium ion transmembrane transport. Predicted to be located in membrane. Predicted to be part of voltage-gated calcium channel complex. Predicted to be active in neuronal cell body. Is expressed in atrium; brain; cardiac ventricle; and liver. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Lambert-Eaton myasthenic syndrome. Orthologous to human CACNA1B (calcium voltage-gated channel subunit alpha1 B).
