🧬 Gene Info
Gene SymbolCACNA1F
Full NameCalcium Voltage-Gated Channel Auxiliary Subunit Alpha1F
AliasesPage for CACNA1F Protein
ChromosomeXp11.23
Functionis located on chromosome Xp11.23 and encodes the alpha1F subunit of voltage-gated calcium channels, known as Cav1.4
Primary Expressionretinal photoreceptors (both rods and cones) where it mediates the influx of calcium ions necessary for synaptic vesicle release and proper transmissi
Amino Acids166 aa
UniProt ID[O43497](https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/O43497)
Ensembl IDENSG00000102040
GeneCardsCACNA1F
Human Protein AtlasCACNA1F
Low-voltage activation thresholdCav1.4 activates at more negative membrane potentials compared to other HVA channels
Slow deactivation kineticsThe channel remains open longer, supporting sustained calcium influx
Interaction with accessory subunitsSpecifically associates with beta2 and alpha2delta-4 subunits in retinal cells
Rod photoreceptorsCritical for scotopic (low-light) vision
Associated Diseasesneurodegeneration research
InteractionsCACNA1A, CACNA1C, CACNA1D, CACNA1E, CACNA1G, CACNA1H
