      • Background:
      • calcium voltage-gated channel auxiliary subunit alpha2delta 3(CACNA2D3) Homo sapiens This gene encodes a member of the alpha-2/delta subunit family, a protein in the voltage-dependent calcium channel complex. Calcium channels mediate the influx of calcium ions into the cell upon membrane polarization and consist of a complex of alpha-1, alpha-2/delta, beta, and gamma subunits in a 1:1:1:1 ratio. Various versions of each of these subunits exist, either expressed from similar genes or the result of alternative splicing. Research on a highly similar protein in rabbit suggests the protein described in this record is cleaved into alpha-2 and delta subunits. Alternate transcriptional splice variants of this gene have been observed but have not been thoroughly characterized. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008],
      • Function:
      • domain:The MIDAS-like motif in the VWFA domain binds divalent metal cations and is required to promote trafficking of the alpha-1 (CACNA1) subunit to the plasma membrane by an integrin-like switch.,function:The alpha-2/delta subunit of voltage-dependent calcium channels regulates calcium current density and activation/inactivation kinetics of the calcium channel. Acts as a regulatory subunit for P/Q-type calcium channel (CACNA1A), N-type (CACNA1B), L-type (CACNA1C OR CACNA1D) but not T-type (CACNA1G).,miscellaneous:In contrast to CACNA2D1 and CACNA2D2, it does not bind gabapentin, an antiepileptic drug.,PTM:May be proteolytically processed into subunits alpha-2-3 and delta-3 that are disulfide-linked. It is however unclear whether such cleavage really takes place in vivo and has a functional role.,PTM:N-glycosylated.,similarity:Belongs to the calcium channel subunit alpha-2/delta family.
