Pharmacol Rev. 2003 Dec;55(4):579-81. doi: 10.1124/pr.55.4.8.

Abstract

This summary article presents an overview of the molecular relationships among the voltage-gated calcium channels and a standard nomenclature for them, which is derived from the IUPHAR Compendium of Voltage-Gated Ion Channels. The complete Compendium, including data tables for each member of the calcium channel family can be found at http://www.iuphar-db.org/iuphar-ic/.
