STAINING SUMMARY
GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
CACNA1I (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
Cav3.3
Description
Calcium channel, voltage-dependent, T type, alpha 1I subunit (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene encodes the pore-forming alpha subunit of a voltage gated calcium channel. The encoded protein is a member of a subfamily of calcium channels referred to as is a low voltage-activated, T-type, calcium channel. The channel encoded by this protein is characterized by a slower activation and inactivation compared to other T-type calcium channels. This protein may be involved in calcium signaling in neurons. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2011]
