The skeletal muscle dihydropyridine receptor consists of five subunits and fulfils an essential role in excitation-contraction coupling. A genomic clone for the human gamma subunit was used to map the gene (CACNLG) to chromosome band 17q24 by in situ hybridization. Contained within the gene is a 416-bp polymorphic repetitive DNA element that is potentially useful as a genetic marker.
骨骼肌二氢吡啶受体由五个亚基组成,在兴奋-收缩偶联中起重要作用。利用人类γ亚基的基因组克隆,通过原位杂交将该基因(CACNLG)定位于染色体17q24带。该基因包含一个416bp的多态性重复DNA元件,它有可能用作遗传标记。
