CaV3.3 encodes the pore-forming alpha subunit of a voltage gated calcium channel. The encoded protein is a member of a subfamily of calcium channels referred to as is a low voltage-activated, T-type, calcium channel. The channel encoded by CaV3.3 is characterized by a slower activation and inactivation compared to other T-type calcium channels. CaV3.3 may be involved in calcium signaling in neurons. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants of CaV3.3. Voltage-gated calcium channels (CaV) are present in the membrane of most excitable cells and mediate calcium influx in response to depolarization, an proteins such as CaV3.3 regulate intracellular processes such as contraction, secretion, neurotransmission and gene expression. Diseases associated with CACNA1I include Childhood Absence Epilepsy.
