Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the calcium channel beta subunit family. It plays an important role in the calcium channel by modulating G protein inhibition, increasing peak calcium current, controlling the alpha-1 subunit membrane targeting and shifting the voltage dependence of activation and inactivation. Alternative splicing occurs at this locus and three transcript variants encoding three distinct isoforms have been identified.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 17

Location in Chromosome : 17q12

Description of this Gene: calcium voltage-gated channel auxiliary subunit beta 1
