Functional Properties of a New Voltage-dependent Calcium Channel α2δ Auxiliary Subunit Gene (CACNA2D2)
1 Apr 2000
Abstract excerpt
We have positionally cloned and characterized a new calcium channel auxiliary subunit, alpha(2)delta-2 (CACNA2D2), which shares 56% amino acid identity with the known alpha(2)delta-1 subunit. The gene maps to the critical human tumor suppressor gene region in chromosome 3p21.3, showing very frequent allele loss and occasional homozygous deletions in lung, breast, and other cancers. The tissue distribution of...
