Gene: CACNG7

Alternate names for this Gene: -

Gene Summary: The 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.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 19

Location in Chromosome : 19q13.42

Description of this Gene: calcium voltage-gated channel auxiliary subunit gamma 7

Type of Gene: protein-coding
