Abstract excerpt
Type 1 ryanodine receptor (RYR1) is a Ca2+ release channel in the sarcoplasmic reticulum of skeletal muscle and is mutated in some muscle diseases, including malignant hyperthermia (MH) and central core disease (CCD). Over 200 mutations associated with these diseases have been identified, and most mutations accelerate Ca2+ -induced Ca2+ release (CICR), resulting in abnormal Ca2+ homeostasis in skeletal muscle....
