InnateDB Gene IDBG-67871 (CACNG7)
Protein Structure
UniProt Annotation
Function Regulates the trafficking and gating properties of AMPA- selective glutamate receptors (AMPARs). Promotes their targeting to the cell membrane and synapses and modulates their gating properties by slowing their rates of activation, deactivation and desensitization and by mediating their resensitization. Displays subunit-specific AMPA receptor regulation. Shows specificity only for GRIA1 and GRIA2. Thought to stabilize the calcium channel in an inactivated (closed) state. {ECO:0000269PubMed:21172611}.
Subcellular Localization Membrane {ECO:0000250}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000250}.
Disease Associations
Tissue Specificity Widely expressed. {ECO:0000269PubMed:11170751}.
