The region for expressing recombinant Human CACNA2D1 contains amino acids 528-668. The calculated molecular weight for this CACNA2D1 protein is 32.3 kDa. This CACNA2D1 protein is produced using e.coli expression system. The N-terminal 6xHis-SUMO tag was fused into the coding gene segment of CACNA2D1, making it easier to detect and purify the CACNA2D1 recombinant protein in the later stages of expression and purification.Voltage-dependent calcium channel subunit alpha-2/delta-1 (CACNA2D1) is primarily studied in the fields of neurobiology and neuropharmacology. Within nerve cells, CACNA2D1 participates in the formation and regulation of voltage-dependent calcium channels, playing a crucial role in neural signal transmission and neuronal excitability. Research indicates that CACNA2D1 is associated with certain neurological disorders such as epilepsy and neuropathic pain. Scientists are exploring its precise role in the pathogenesis of these diseases, aiming to provide new targets and strategies for their treatment. Additionally, the study of CACNA2D1 extends to the cardiovascular system, particularly its function in cardiac muscle cells. Its regulatory mechanisms in cardiovascular diseases and arrhythmias are also subjects of considerable interest.

Target Background
The preproprotein encoded by this gene is cleaved into multiple chains that comprise the alpha-2 and delta subunits of the voltage-dependent calcium channel complex. Calcium channels mediate the influx of calcium ions into the cell upon membrane polarization. Mutations in this gene can cause cardiac deficiencies, including Brugada syndrome and short QT syndrome. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants, some of which may lack the delta subunit portion.
