Cacna2d1 Gene Summary [Mouse]
This gene encodes a regulatory component of the voltage-dependent calcium channel complex. The product of this gene is a proprotein that is proteolytically processed into alpha-2 and delta subunits, which are linked by a disulfide bond. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2013]

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Cacna2d1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
