Background:

Voltage-dependent Ca2+ channelsmediate Ca2+ entryinto excitable cells in response tomembrane depolarization, and they are involved in a variety of Ca2+-dependent processes, includingmuscle contraction, hormone or neurotransmitter release and gene expression. Calciumchannels are highly diverse, multimeric complexescomposed of anα-1 subunit, an intracellular β-subunit, a disulfide linkedα-2/δ-subunit and a transmembrane γ-subunit. Ca2+ currents are characterized on the basis of their biophysical and pharmacologic properties and include L-, N-, T-, P-, Q-, and R-types. R-type Ca++ currentsinitiate a rapid synaptictransmission that isregulated through G proteins, SNARE proteins, and protein phosphorylation. R-type Ca++ channels may partially regulate the secretory processin chromaffin cells bymediating rapid secretoryresponses evoked byshort depolarizing pulses.
