Gene information for CACNG5 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID27091
Official gene symbolCACNG5
Full namecalcium channel, voltage-dependent, gamma subunit 5
Aliases,MGC126656,MGC126682,
Gene summaryThe protein encoded by this gene is a type II transmembrane AMPA receptor regulatory protein (TARP). TARPs regulate both trafficking and channel gating of the AMPA receptors. This gene is part of a functionally diverse eight-member protein subfamily of the PMP-22/EMP/MP20 family and is located in a cluster with two family members, a type I TARP and a calcium channel gamma subunit. This gene is a susceptibility locus for schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. [provided by RefSeq]
