CACNA2D2 Proteins and Enzymes

The CACNA2D2 gene encodes a voltage-dependent calcium channel subunit alpha-2/delta-2 protein that exists in 5 isoforms: isoform 1: 1,150 amino acids long, 129 kDA; isoform 2: 1,143 amino acids long, 129 kDA; isoform 3: 1,145 amino acids long, 129 kDA; isoform 4: 1,076 amino acids long, 122 kDA; and isoform 5: 1,152 amino acids long, 130 kDA. These proteins are critical in calcium current density and in activation and inactivation kinetics of the calcium channel. Additionally, these proteins ...
