Strain development
Strain descriptionCacna1g gene is a member of the low-voltage-activated calcium channel that plays a critcal role in calcium ion transport in nerve, muscle and endocrine cells. This conditional Cacna1g deficient mice were generated by crossing with telencephalin specific Cre transgenic mice.
