Descriptor canales del calcio
Entry term(s) canal de calcio dependiente del voltaje
canales iónicos de calcio
receptores de los bloqueantes de los canales del calcio
Scope note: Glicoproteínas de las membranas celulares, dependientes del voltaje, y que son selectivamente permeables a los iones calcio. En base a su cinética de activación e inactivación, su especificidad iónica y su sensibilidad a medicamentos y toxinas, se clasifican en tipo L, T, N, P, Q, y R. Los tipos L y T están presentes en los sistemas cardiovascular y nervioso central y los tipos N, P, Q, y R se localizan en el tejido neuronal.

Scope note: Voltage-dependent cell membrane glycoproteins selectively permeable to calcium ions. They are categorized as L-, T-, N-, P-, Q-, and R-types based on the activation and inactivation kinetics, ion specificity, and sensitivity to drugs and toxins. The L- and T-types are present throughout the cardiovascular and central nervous systems and the N-, P-, Q-, & R-types are located in neuronal tissue.
