Background
The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the calcium channel beta subunit family. It plays an important role in the calcium channel by modulating G protein inhibition, increasing peak calcium current, controlling the alpha-1 subunit membrane targeting and shifting the voltage dependence of activation and inactivation. Alternative splicing occurs at this locus and three transcript variants encoding three distinct isoforms have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008],
Function
function:The beta subunit of voltage-dependent calcium channels contributes to the function of the calcium channel by increasing peak calcium current, shifting the voltage dependencies of activation and inactivation, modulating G protein inhibition and controlling the alpha-1 subunit membrane targeting.,similarity:Belongs to the calcium channel beta subunit family.,similarity:Contains 1 SH3 domain.,subunit:The L-type calcium channel is composed of four subunits: alpha-1, alpha-2, beta and gamma. Interacts with JSRP1.,tissue specificity:Expressed in brain, heart and spleen (isoform 1 and 3) and in skeletal muscle (isoform 2).,
