Background Information
Calcium voltage-gated channel auxiliary subunit alpha2delta 4 (CACNA2D4, also known as RCD4) is a member of the alpha-2/delta subunit family within the voltage-dependent calcium channel complex. The α2δ4 subunit of retinal voltage-gated calcium channels (Cav), is crucial for developing and mature exocytotic function of the photoreceptor ribbon synapse (PMID: 29875267). CACNA2D4 is localized to the retina, particularly in photoreceptors, where it is essential for organizing synaptic ribbons and setting Cav1.4 voltage sensitivity (PMID: 28262416). In humans, mutations in CACNA2D4 are associated with autosomal recessive cone dystrophy, a condition that affects the photoreceptor cells in the retina (PMID: 16877424).
