Abstract excerpt
Type 2 ryanodine receptor (RYR2) is a cardiac Ca2+ release channel in the ER. Mutations in RYR2 are linked to catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT). CPVT is associated with enhanced spontaneous Ca2+ release, which tends to occur when [Ca2+]ER reaches a threshold. Mutations lower the threshold [Ca2+]ER by increasing luminal Ca2+ sensitivity or enhancing cytosolic [Ca2+] ([Ca2+]cyt)-dependent...
