- Peptide MDEEEDGAGAEESGQPRSFTQL(C), corresponding to amino acid residues 1-22 of rat CACNA1G (Accession O54898). Intracellular, N-terminus.
- Rat and mouse cerebellum.
- Expression of CACNA1G in rat and mouse cerebellumImmunohistochemical staining of mouse (A) and rat (B) cerebellum using Anti-CACNA1G (CaV3.1)-ATTO Fluor-594 Antibody (#ACC-021-AR). A, B. CACNA1G staining (red) appears in Purkinje neurons (arrow) and in the molecular layer (Mol). Nuclei were stained using DAPI as the counterstain (Blue).
Voltage-dependent Ca2+ channels provide a pathway for rapid influx of Ca2+ into cells, which plays a crucial role in both electrical and metabolic signaling.1
T-type currents are transduced via channel proteins encoded by three genes that compose a subfamily within the CaV channel family.2-3
The activity of T-type channels contributes to several known physiological and pathophysiological phenomena including burst firing in neurons, pacemaking activity in the heart and secretion from endocrine tissues.2 There are three cloned T-type channel isoforms.
CACNA1G (CaV3.1) and CACNA1H (CaV3.2) are widely distributed whereas the expression of CACNA1I (CaV3.3) is restricted to the central nervous system.2
CACNA1G and CACNA1H are also expressed in the kidney, but little is known about their physiological role there.
