A simulation study of calcium release channel
The IP3R calcium release channel has been simulated using a stochastic simulation algorithm (SSA;Gillespie algorithm) and De young-Keiser model. A set of different concentration for Cat' and IP3 havebeen used. Considering the Number of molecules in each state, a non linear behavior of the system can beseen clearly. The inhibiting role of the Ca+2 on the open state (X110) has been studied. The d...
متن کاملUnravelling calcium-release channel gating: clues from a 'hot' disease.
Ryanodine receptors (RyRs) are a family of intracellular channels that mediate Ca2+ release from the endoplasmic and sarcoplasmic reticulum. More than 50 distinct point mutations in one member of this family, RyR1, cause malignant hyperthermia, a potentially lethal pharmacogenetic disorder of skeletal muscle. These mutations are not randomly distributed throughout the primary structure of RyR1,...
متن کاملCoupled gating between cardiac calcium release channels (ryanodine receptors).
Excitation-contraction coupling in heart muscle requires the activation of Ca(2+)-release channels/type 2 ryanodine receptors (RyR2s) by Ca(2+) influx. RyR2s are arranged on the sarcoplasmic reticular membrane in closely packed arrays such that their large cytoplasmic domains contact one another. We now show that multiple RyR2s can be isolated under conditions such that they remain physically c...
متن کاملCoupled gating between individual cardiac ryanodine calcium release channels.
In order to study interactions between ryanodine receptor calcium release (RyR2) channels during excitation-contraction coupling in cardiac muscle, we used bilayer lipid membrane (BLM) and improved the method of cardiac sarcoplasmic vesicle fusion into BLM. We increased fusion gradient for the vesicles, used chloride ions for fusion up to concentration of 1.2 mol/l and fused the vesicles by add...
متن کاملCalcium-mediated dual-mode regulation of cardiac sodium channel gating.
Intracellular Ca(2+) ([Ca(2+)](i)) can trigger dual-mode regulation of the voltage gated cardiac sodium channel (Na(V)1.5). The channel components of the Ca(2+) regulatory system are the calmodulin (CaM)-binding IQ motif and the Ca(2+) sensing EF hand-like (EFL) motif in the carboxyl terminus of the channel. Mutations in either motif have been associated with arrhythmogenic changes in expressed...
