Difference between Dopamine transporter and Voltage-gated calcium channel

Dopamine transporter vs. Voltage-gated calcium channel

The dopamine transporter (also dopamine active transporter, DAT, SLC6A3) is a membrane-spanning protein that pumps the neurotransmitter dopamine out of the synaptic cleft back into cytosol. Voltage-gated calcium channels (VGCCs), also known as voltage-dependent calcium channels (VDCCs), are a group of voltage-gated ion channels found in the membrane of excitable cells (e.g., muscle, glial cells, neurons, etc.) with a permeability to the calcium ion Ca2+.

Similarities between Dopamine transporter and Voltage-gated calcium channel

Dopamine transporter and Voltage-gated calcium channel have 7 things in common (in Unionpedia): Cav1.2, Cav1.3, Cell membrane, Depolarization, Membrane potential, Neurotransmitter, Sodium.

Cav1.2

Calcium channel, voltage-dependent, L type, alpha 1C subunit (also known as Cav1.2) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CACNA1C gene.

Cav1.3

Calcium channel, voltage-dependent, L type, alpha 1D subunit (also known as Cav1.3) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CACNA1D gene.

Cell membrane

The cell membrane (also known as the plasma membrane or cytoplasmic membrane, and historically referred to as the plasmalemma) is a biological membrane that separates the interior of all cells from the outside environment (the extracellular space).

Depolarization

In biology, depolarization is a change within a cell, during which the cell undergoes a shift in electric charge distribution, resulting in less negative charge inside the cell.

Membrane potential

The term "membrane potential" may refer to one of three kinds of membrane potential.

Dopamine transporter and Voltage-gated calcium channel Comparison

Dopamine transporter has 95 relations, while Voltage-gated calcium channel has 90. As they have in common 7, the Jaccard index is 3.78% = 7 / (95 + 90).
