Function | This protein is a subunit of the dihydropyridine (DHP) sensitive calcium channel. Plays a role in excitation-contraction coupling. The skeletal muscle DHP-sensitive Ca(2+) channel may function only as a multiple subunit complex. |
Subcellular Location | Membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. |
Tissue Specificity | Skeletal muscle. |
Top Pathways | MAPK signaling pathway, Cardiac muscle contraction, Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC), Dilated cardiomyopathy |
