Postulated role of interdomain interactions within the type 1 ryanodine receptor in the low gain of Ca2+-induced Ca2+ release activity of mammalian skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum.
2005
Ryanodine receptor (RyR) type 1 (RyR1) exhibits a markedly lower gain of Ca2+-induced Ca2+ release (CICR) activity than RyR type 3 (RyR3) in the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) of mammalian skeletal muscle (selective stabilization of the RyR1 channel), and this reduction in the gain is largely eliminated using 3-[(3-cholamidopropyl)dimethylammonio]-1-propanesulfonic acid (CHAPS). We have investigated whether the hypothesized interdomain interactions within RyR1 are involved in the selective stabilization of the channel using [3H]ryanodine binding, single-channel recordings, and Ca2+ release from the SR vesicles. Like CHAPS, domain peptide 4 (DP4, a synthetic peptide corresponding to the Leu2442-Pro2477 region of RyR1), which seems to destabilize the interdomain interactions, markedly stimulated RyR1 but not RyR3. Their activating effects were saturable and nonadditive. Dantrolene, a potent inhibitor of RyR1 used to treat malignant hyperthermia, reversed the effects of DP4 or CHAPS in an identical manner.
