Publication Link Summary of findings
17949918 These findings suggest that the pathology of CSNB-2 in patients with these missense mutations in the Ca(v)1.4 calcium channel is the result in either a gain of function (F742C) or a loss of function (G1007R, R1049W).
17651254 Testing confirms the diagnosis at the molecular level and allows for a more precise prognosis of the possible future clinical evolution
16476079 The clinical phenotype of R508Q and L1364H night blindness mutations is unlikely to be explained by changes in channel gating. Instead, these mutations affect the protein expression of Ca(v)1.4 Ca(2+) channels.
15634789 Our data provide unequivocal evidence that congenital stationary night blindness type 2 missense mutations can induce severe changes in Ca(v)1.4 function.
14973233 Introduction of base pair changes associated with four incomplete X-linked congenital night blindness mutations showed that only the G369D alteration affected channel activation properties. Ca(v)1.4 was found widely expressed outside the retina
17525176 The present study clearly indicates that AIED (Aland Island eye disease) is also caused by a novel CACNA1F gene mutation.
12552565 Novel nonsense mutation detected in exon 7 occurs after the predicted fifth transmembrane domain, deleting part of domain I and all of domains II, III,IV, the EF-hand motif and cytoplasmic C-terminus.
12860808 These findings indicate that a mutation of the CACNA1F gene may be associated with retinal and optic disc atrophy with a progressive decline of visual function.
15761389 In a pool of eight diagnosed XLCSNB (X-linked congenital stationary night blindness) patients, five showed a sequence variation in the CACNA1F and two in the NYX gene.
15897456 A CACNA1F mutation identified in an X-linked retinal disorder shifts the voltage dependence of Cav1.4 channel activation.
12719097 A novel mutation in the CACNA1F gene adds further support to the contention that CSNB2 represents a genetically distinct retinal disorder of a calcium channel.
16505158 X linked cone-rod dystrophy (CORDX3), is caused by a mutation in CACNA1F.
15807819 Molecular analyses, reported separately, identified a novel I745T CACNA1F mutation that was associated in vitro with major alterations in gating and kinetics of the Ca(v)1.4 channel.
12111638 comprehensive mutation analyses in the 48 CACNA1F exons in 36 families, most of them from Germany
16085774 Cav1.4 encodes a calcium channel with low open probability and unitary conductance
12853422 The biophysical and pharmacological properties of human retinal Cav1.4alpha1 using the whole-cell patch-clamp technique after heterologous expression in tsA-201 cells were compared with other L-type alpha1 subunits
12954628 L-type Ca2+ channel plays a significant role in the Ca2+ influx pathways mediating T lymphocyte activation and proliferation
