Voltage-Dependent L-Type Calcium Channel Subunit Beta-2

**Semantic type:** Amino Acid, Peptide, or Protein

**Definition:** Voltage-dependent L-type calcium channel subunit beta-2 (660 aa, ~74 kDa) is encoded by the human CACNB2 gene. This protein plays a role in voltage-gated calcium transport, heart rate, muscle contraction and neurotransmission.
