Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.4.0)
Enables low voltage-gated calcium channel activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including regulation of atrial cardiac muscle cell membrane depolarization; regulation of heart rate; and response to nickel cation. Located in plasma membrane. Is expressed in central nervous system; heart; hindlimb musculature; lower jaw molar; and retina. Used to study cerebellar ataxia type 42. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in cerebellar ataxia type 42. Orthologous to human CACNA1G (calcium voltage-gated channel subunit alpha1 G).
