Summary: Enables actin filament binding activity and voltage-gated calcium channel activity involved in regulation of presynaptic cytosolic calcium levels. Acts upstream of or within chemical synaptic transmission and visual perception. Part of voltage-gated calcium channel complex. Is active in photoreceptor ribbon synapse. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; eye; genitourinary system; and heart. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Brugada syndrome 4; hypertension; and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Orthologous to human CACNB2 (calcium voltage-gated channel auxiliary subunit beta 2).

Many hormone- or neurotransmitter-activated receptors stimulate PIP2 hydrolysis and increase cytosolic Ca(2+); thus, our findings suggest that beta2e may integrate such receptor-mediated signals to limit Cav activity.

We conclude that phosphorylation of the C-terminal sites in Ca(v)beta(2), Ser(1928), Ser(1512), and Ser(1570) of the Ca(v)1.2 protein is functionally not involved in the adrenergic regulation of the murine cardiac Ca(v)1.2 channel.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
