Modification Notes
CACNA2D2 is a gene coding for the protein calcium channel, voltage-dependent alpha2delta-2 (Cacna2d2), a regulatory subunit of the voltage dependent calcium channels. The protein interacts with alpha-1, beta and gamma subunits in a 1:1:1:1 ratio to form a channel mediating calcium influx. Protein expression occurs in the brain, heart, and other tissues, and is involved in central nervous system function. Disruptions of the CACNA2D2 gene may be involved in cerebellar ataxias and epileptic episodes in humans. The gene is localized to the tumor suppressor region of chromosome 3p21.3 in humans. Expression deficiency occurs in lung, breast and other cancers in humans. Part of a family of Alpha2/delta subunits involved in voltage-dependent calcium influx, Cacna2d2 shares 56% amino acid homology with the alpha2/delta-1 subunit, although they have different patterns of tissue expression.
