Primary Drug Target
| Name | Dihydropyridine calcium channel | | Gene Name | CACNG1 | | Synonyms | Voltage-dependent calcium channel gamma-1 subunit; Dihydropyridine- sensitive L-type, skeletal muscle calcium channel gamma subunit | | Specific 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 |
