Beta subunit of voltage-dependent calcium channels which contributes to the function of the calcium channel by increasing peak calcium current (By similarity). Plays a role in shifting voltage dependencies of activation and inactivation of the channel (By similarity). May modulate G protein inhibition (By similarity). May contribute to beta-adrenergic augmentation of Ca(2+) influx in cardiomyocytes, thereby regulating increases in heart rate and contractile force (PubMed:36424916). Involved in membrane targeting of the alpha-1 subunit CACNA1C (PubMed:17525370).
