CACNA2D2 (Q9NY47) variants and mutations

CACNA2D2 (also known as Q9NY47) is a human protein-coding gene encoding a voltage-dependent calcium channel subunit alpha-2/delta-2 protein. It promotes trafficking and functional expression of voltage-gated calcium-channel complexes and is particularly important in cerebellar neurons. Biallelic loss-of-function variants can cause developmental epileptic encephalopathy with cerebellar atrophy and ataxia. This analysis covers 447 CACNA2D2 variants and mutations. Of these, 92% have computational variant effect predictions. Disease context includes cerebellar atrophy, developmental delay, and seizures, epilepsy, and Seizure. Example CACNA2D2 variants include P4L, G9C, and R17W.
