epitope corresponding to amino acids 244-323 mapping at the C-terminus of L-type Ca++ CP γ2 of human origin
Modification Notes
Excitable cells in response to membrane depolarization are involved in a variety of Ca2+-dependent processes, including muscle contraction, hormone or neurotransmitter release and gene expression (1-3). Calcium channels are highly diverse, multimeric complexes composed of an alpha-1 subunit, an intracellular beta subunit, a disulfide linked alpha-2/delta subunit and a transmembrane gamma subunit (1,4). L-type Ca2+ currents initiate muscle contraction, endocrine secretion and gene transcription, and are regulated through second-messenger activated protein phosphorylation pathways (1). L-type calcium channels may form macromolecular signaling complexes with G protein-coupled receptors, thereby enhancing the selectivity of regulating specific targets (5). L-type calcium channels in the brain specifically express the gamma-2 subunit along with gamma-3 and -4 subunits (6). The gamma-2 subunit (also known as stargazin) is abundant in synaptic plasma membranes where it regulates synaptic targeting of AMP receptors in granule cells (6,7).
