Other Information

**Key Characteristics** CACNG5 is a gamma subunit of the voltage-gated calcium channel, which is a heteromeric complex composed of alpha, beta, gamma, delta, and epsilon subunits. The gamma subunit, specifically CACNG5, is involved in the modulation of calcium channel activity, influencing the influx of calcium ions into the cell. This calcium influx is essential for various cellular processes, including neurotransmitter release, muscle contraction, and cell signaling. **Pathways and Functions** CACNG5 is involved in several critical signaling pathways, including: 1. **Ampa glutamate receptor complex**: CACNG5 interacts with the alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA) receptor complex, modulating the release of glutamate, the primary excitatory neurotransmitter in the brain. 2. **Calcium ion transmembrane transport**: CACNG5 regulates the influx of calcium ions into the cell, which is essential for various cellular processes, including neurotransmitter release and muscle contraction. 3. **Channel regulator activity**: CACNG5 modulates the activity of voltage-gated calcium channels, influencing the flow of calcium ions into the cell. 4. **Glutamatergic synapse**: CACNG5 plays a crucial role in the regulation of glutamatergic synapses, which are essential for learning and memory. **Clinical Significance** Dysregulation of CACNG5 has been implicated in various neurological and psychiatric disorders, including: 1. **Epilepsy**: Altered expression of CACNG5 has been observed in patients with epilepsy, suggesting its potential role in the regulation of seizure activity. 2. **Mood disorders**: CACNG5 has been linked to mood disorders, such as depression and bipolar disorder, which may be related to its role in regulating glutamatergic neurotransmission. 3. **Neurodegenerative diseases**: CACNG5 has been implicated in neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease, which may be related to its role in regulating calcium ion flow and neurotransmitter release. In conclusion, CACNG5 is a critical gene that plays a significant role in the regulation of calcium ion flow and neurotransmitter release in the nervous system. Its dysregulation has been implicated in various neurological and psychiatric disorders, highlighting the importance of further research into its role in human health and disease.
