FAMILY

calcium channel alpha-1 subunit (TC 1.A.1.11) family

DESCRIPTION

Also known as TPC1_ARATH, TPC1, CCH1, FOU2. Functions as a voltage-gated inward-rectifying Ca(2+) channel (VDCC) across the vacuole membrane. Is one of the essential components of the slow vacuolar (SV) channel. Acts as the major ROS-responsive Ca(2+) channel and is the possible target of Al-dependent inhibition. Involved in the regulation of germination and stomatal movement. Homodimer.
