Summary
Enables high voltage-gated calcium channel activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including calcium ion transmembrane transport; neurotransmitter secretion; and response to pain. Located in dendrite; membrane; and neuronal cell body. Part of voltage-gated calcium channel complex. Is active in presynaptic active zone. Is expressed in several structures, including adrenal gland; alimentary system; brain; genitourinary system; and retina. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Lambert-Eaton myasthenic syndrome. Orthologous to human CACNA1B (calcium voltage-gated channel subunit alpha1 B).

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
