Synonyms CACH2; CACN2; CACNA1C; CACNL1A1; CCHL1A1; CaV1.2; Calcium channel, L type, alpha-1 polypeptide, isoform 1, cardiac muscle; LQT8; TS; Voltage-dependent L-type calcium channel subunit alpha-1C; Voltage-gated calcium channel subunit alpha Cav1.2
DT Family Voltage-Gated Ion Channel (VIC) Superfamily ;
Tissue Specificity Detected throughout the brain, includinghippocampus, cerebellum and amygdala, throughout the heart andvascular system, including ductus arteriosus, in urinary bladder,and in retina and sclera in the eye (PubMed:15454078). Expressedin brain, heart, jejunum, ovary, pancreatic beta-cells andvascular smooth muscle. Overall expression is reduced inatherosclerotic vascular smooth muscle.
Function This transporter mediates influx of calcium ions into the cytoplasm and plays an important role in excitation-contraction coupling in the heart. Pore-forming, alpha-1C subunit of the voltage-gated calcium channel that gives rise to L-type calcium currents. Required for normal heart development and normal regulation of heart rhythm. Required for normal contraction of smooth muscle cells in blood vessels and in the intestine. Essential for normal blood pressure regulation via its role in the contraction of arterial smooth muscle cells. Long-lasting (L-type) calcium channels belong to the 'high-voltage activated' (HVA) group.
Endogenous Substrate(s) Ca2+
