Cav1.4

Cav1.4 refers to a specific type of voltage-gated calcium channel, which is part of the Cav1 family of channels. These channels are crucial for the influx of calcium ions (Ca²⁺) into cells in response to membrane depolarization. Cav1.4 is primarily found in the retina, particularly in photoreceptor cells (such as rods and cones) and some bipolar cells. Key features of Cav1.
