Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.4.0)
Predicted to enable low voltage-gated calcium channel activity; scaffold protein binding activity; and voltage-gated sodium channel activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including metal ion transport; neuronal action potential; and steroid hormone biosynthetic process. Located in caveola and sarcolemma. Is active in glutamatergic synapse; postsynaptic membrane; and presynaptic active zone membrane. Is expressed in heart; hindlimb; intestine smooth muscle circular layer; nervous system; and olfactory epithelium. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in childhood absence epilepsy and primary hyperaldosteronism. Orthologous to human CACNA1H (calcium voltage-gated channel subunit alpha1 H).
