Biochem/physiol Actions

The Cav2.1 P/Q voltage-dependent calcium channel is encoded by the CACNA1A gene in humans. It is a pore-forming essential subunit embedded in the plasma membrane. Mutation in this gene causes a number of human neurologic diseases including familial hemiplegic migraine. CACNA1A is associated with both hemiplegic migraine and migraine with aura in patients. Mutation in this gene is the cause of Type 2 episodic ataxia (EA2) the most common subtype among a group of rare hereditary syndromes characterized by recurrent attacks of ataxia.

Physical form

Lyophilized from phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 1% bovine serum albumin and 0.05% sodium azide.

Mutations in the CACNA1A gene, which encodes the pore-forming α1A subunit of the CaV2.1 voltage-gated calcium channel, cause a number of human neurologic diseases including familial hemiplegic migraine. We have analyzed the functional impact of the E1015K amino acid substitution

Genetic analyses have linked BTBD9 to restless legs syndrome (RLS) and sleep regulation. Btbd9 knockout mice show RLS-like motor restlessness. Previously, we found hyperactivity of cerebellar Purkinje cells (PCs) in Btbd9 knockout mice, which may contribute to the motor restlessness

Horizontal cells send inhibitory feedback to photoreceptors, helping form antagonistic receptive fields in the retina, but the neurotransmitter and the mechanisms underlying this signalling are not known. Since the proteins responsible for conventional Ca(2+)-dependent release of GABAergic synaptic vesicles are
