    Summary
    Enables voltage-gated calcium channel activity. Acts upstream of or within flagellated sperm motility; sodium ion transport; and sperm capacitation. Located in acrosomal vesicle and endoplasmic reticulum. Part of CatSper complex. Is expressed in ductus deferens; epididymis; ileum; prostate gland; and testis. Orthologous to human CATSPER3 (cation channel sperm associated 3). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

    RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

    These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

    These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
