Calcium signaling is crucial for several aspects of plasticity at glutamatergic synapses. In mammalian cells the enzyme is composed of four different chains: alpha, beta, gamma, and delta. The product of this gene is a gamma chain. Many alternatively spliced transcripts encoding different isoforms have been described but the full-length nature of all the variants has not been determined.[provided by RefSeq, Mar 2011] Expression Ubiquitous expression in brain (RPKM 28.7), prostate (RPKM 10.9) and 24 other tissues See more Orthologs mouse all
