Purkinje Cell-Specific Ablation of Ca(V)2.1 Channels is Sufficient to Cause Cerebellar Ataxia in Mice

The Cacna1a gene encodes the α(1A) subunit of voltage-gated Ca(V)2.1 Ca(2+) channels that are involved in neurotransmission at central synapses. Ca(V)2.1-α(1)-knockout (α1KO) mice, which lack Ca(V)2.1 channels in all neurons, have a very severe phenotype of cerebellar ataxia and dystonia, and usuall...
