Synonyms BII; Brain calcium channel II; CACH6; CACNA1E; CACNL1A6; Calcium channel, L type, alpha-1 polypeptide, isoform 6; Cav2.3; EIEE69; Voltage-dependent R-type calcium channel subunit alpha-1E; gm139; Voltage-gated calcium channel subunit alpha Cav2.3
DT Family Voltage-Gated Ion Channel (VIC) Superfamily ;
Tissue Specificity Expressed in neuronal tissues and in kidney.
Function This voltage-sensitive calcium transporter mediate the entry of calcium ions into excitable cells and are also involved in a variety of calcium-dependent processes, including muscle contraction, hormone or neurotransmitter release, gene expression, cell motility, cell division and cell death. The isoform alpha-1E gives rise to R-type calcium currents. R-type calcium channels belong to the 'high-voltage activated' (HVA) group and are blocked by nickel. They are however insensitive to dihydropyridines (DHP). Calcium channels containing alpha-1E subunit could be involved in the modulation of firing patterns of neurons which is important for information processing.
